New republican mural in Derry
A NEW MURAL was unveiled at the Lecky Road on Easter Sunday by the Chairperson of Derry Sinn Féin, Andrew McCartney, and families of local republicans whose names are on the Bogside and Brandywell monument. Around a hundred people attended the event.
Councillor Colly Kelly, who chaired the unveiling ceremony, thanked everyone who supported the project commemorating IRA Volunteers, especially the families, artist Paddy Nelis and the people of the local area who helped raise funds so this mural could be completed.
