Eritreans in the UK hold memorial service
Hundreds
of Eritreans in the UK attended memorial
service for HE Ali Said Abdela on
1st of September
2005. The service started at 7.00 pm, and
continued
throughout the evening. Poems that reflect the
dedication and
heroism of Mr Ali were read.
The condolence book that was opened on
Monday has been
signed by over 1200 Eritreans. Diplomats from
different
countries including officials from UK
foreign office, other European
countries and Latin
America also visited the Embassy and signed the
book.
The memorial service was opened by the Eritrean
Ambassador to the
UK, Mr Negasi Sengal and a senior
Eritrean government official HE
Niazgi Kflu was also
present.
This occasion was also used to
reaffirm Eritreans’
commitment to boost their participation in
the
on-going effort to build the country and look after
the families of
martyrs.
Our thoughts are with the family of Ali Said Abdela.
