The weekend which started on Friday 29 April 2022, will continue until Tuesday 03 May at night. The President of the Republic has just declared Tuesday 03 May 2022 as a non-working day. By virtue of decree N°317/CAB/PR of 02 May 2022, this day is declared a public holiday throughout the territory of the Republic of Cameroon. This decision is based on the 1996 Constitution and Law No. 73/5 of 7 December 1973 to lay down the system of legal holidays, amended and supplemented by Law No. 76/08 of 8 July 1976.

This decision of the Head of State results from the celebration of the 136th edition of the International Labour Day on Sunday 1 May 2022 and of the Ramadan holiday on Monday 2 May 2022. It gives the opportunity to the Muslim community to continue the celebrations without any pressure related to the resumption of professional, academic or school activities the following day.
