Hi Ivan,
I would agree with Alina, 'linger' sounds unusual in this case.
You could use 'remain' as she suggests or "It is important that he stays there as long as possible, so we can prepare (for) his birthday party."
Good luck with your studies.

Linger sounds unnatural here. I would say "It is important that he remain there as long as possible, so we can prepare (for) his birthday party." Hope that helps! : )
