Eid mubarak, May Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) accept our worship ameen.
For years Ramadan begins or ends with some controversies about sighting of the crescent in Nigeria, in 2008 we had three different Eid days in Nigeria.
The conjunction of Shawwal crescent occurred on Friday 29th Ramadan at 6:39pm in Nigeria and moonset was before sunset too, making it practically impossible to sight the crescent.
I received contact details of another group in Gashua that claimed sighting the crescent, I called him and he said they went out in a group of 20
I also received contact details of someone in Jalingo Taraba state who claimed sighting the crescent, I called him and he said while eating after praying Magrib
Unguwan Jeji KEBBI state sighted by 10 people at 7:05pm and the crescent was facing up.
Kafin Madaki Bauchi state sighted by about 10 people at 6:55pm and the crescent was facing north
Gummi Zamfara state sighted by a group of 10 at 7:10pm and the crescent was facing south.
Gummi 2nd group of about 5 sighted at about 7:04pm and it wa facing south.
