Nigerias Christmas and New Year Celebrations Have Been Marked by Sorrow for Two Decades.

Nigerians have not experienced a joyful and celebratory Christmas and New Year's in over 20 years, with records showing a trend of issues being carried forward into the new year. The current festive season may follow a similar pattern as previous ones.

According to records, this trend has persisted for over two decades, suggesting a concerning erosion of traditional holiday festivities.
