New Year’s Day is a time of resolutions and starting fresh for some, while for others it is spent recovering from a big, late night spent with friends and family.

On New Year’s Eve, there may be some fireworks displays in major cities of Niger. Many families have a get-together with food served and stay up to see the old year finish and the new year arrive.
