The Torch of Republican Youth Burns on in Derry City

Derry City's well known Republican Youth group Tóirsire (meaning Torch Carriers), is to launch as Ógra Shinn Féin Doire this Tuesday 27th November.


The youth group which has worked closely with Sinn Féin in Derry in recent times, has built up a campaigning reputation around the city.

Ógra Uladh organiser Johnny McGibbon announced the developments today,

"The Republican Youth group in Derry City, Tóirsire, is to become a new Ógra Shinn Féin Cumann this Tuesday 27th November. The inaugural meeting will begin at 7pm in the Sinn Féin centre, in the Ráth Mór complex."

He continued,

"I look forward to working with the new Cumann in the months ahead, and would encourage all Ógra and young Republican activists to make an effort to attend the meeting to show support for the new Cumann."

He concluded,

"Dófaidh an tóirse ar aghaidh!"
