The Sean MacDiarmada Society in Fermanagh also marked the anniversary of Jim Murphy’s death as part of their Easter Commemorations.

A large crowd was in attendance at the commemoration held in Derrylin in the St. Ninnidh's Church graveyard.

The commemoration was chaired by Pearse McGovern; Peadar Neary read the Roll of Honour; Paul McGoldrick read the Proclamation of the Republic; and the main address was delivered by Derek Warfield of the Young Wolfe Tones.

The address focused on the anniversary of Mr. Murphy as part of the 50th anniversary commemorations, and touched on several other topics, including the civil rights movement.

A spokesperson for the event said: “Derek [Warfield] alluded to the fact that Jim Murphy was a civil rights activist, and now we have a greater housing crisis than before, as well as a failing health service.”

In addition, a message of solidarity to the people of Palestine was also heard.
