Season’s Greetings!

As the year winds down, Nigeria is settling into a familiar end-of-year ritual: reflection mixed with anxiety about what lies ahead. In motor parks, markets, offices and across social media timelines, one topic dominates conversations, the new tax regime scheduled to take effect in January. “In the absence of consistent, clear public communication, speculation fills the vacuum,” said a tax consultant in Lagos. “People end up reacting to policies that do not even exist, while ignoring what the reform actually says.”

The Federal Government has declared Thursday, December 25, and Friday, December 26, 2025, as public holidays to mark Christmas and Boxing Day. Alongside this, they look forward to celebrating Thursday, January 1, 2026, for the New Year. The Christmas season and the New Year present an opportunity for Nigerians to strengthen the bonds of unity, show compassion to one another, and renew our collective commitment to nation-building.

For many Nigerians, expectations for the new year are cautious rather than grand: clarity instead of confusion, stability instead of constant shocks, and breathing space after years of strain.
