Ógra Shinn Féin extends our deepest sympathies to the family of our friend, our comrade and our mentor who died suddenly on Sunday night.
We would like to extend our deepest sympathies to Louise, his children Hugh Thomas, Daibhead, Niamh, Aoife and the entire family circle.
Micheal Ferguson was one of the hardest working republican activists - he pursued his cumann, council and assembly duties with vigour and determination.
Despite his massive workload, he always lent an ear, a word of guidance or a helping hand when Ógra called on him.
It was Michael who successfully forced the U-Turn by the University of Ulster trying to ban student politics last year, and he again, just last week, from his hospital bed was mounting another campaign against the University.
Michael's work ethic and selfless attitude to education and the community is evident today as the hundreds of messages flood in from a heart broken movement and community.
We have lost a true friend, a mentor and one of the most selfless activists this struggle has known - his actions, his vision and his memory will continue to guide us forward!

Michael Ferguson was a role model and a true republican socialist who gave his life to republicanism and to his people; you will be truly missed by all, particularly us at Ógra Shinn Féin, Coláiste Mhig Aoidh, who gained so much inspiration from your continuous hard work and admiration. Ádh mhór a chomrade!!!
