ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Late Drummer Lee Rigby (aged 25) left a good name and legacy for his family, friends and colleagues while the “Killers Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale” destroyed their family names.

Michael Adebolajo (aged 28) and Michael Adebowale (aged 22) that killed Soldier, Drummer Lee Rigby at Woolwich did not live up to the adage that said “Names do guide action” because of their evil act.  Michael “the name of an Angel that defend” that is often given by Christians to babies at birth during “Naming Ceremony” or “Baptism”.  “Adebolajo” means “Crown blends with wealth” while “Adebowale” means “The Crown returned Home”.  These two Family Names are commonly used by the “Yoruba Monarchs and the Chief’s family that can be crowned”.

According to the Yoruba adage “Good name is better than Silver and Gold” only when such family members use the names in a positive manner but in this case, Adebolajo and Adebowale family names have been destroyed as a result of this evil act.

Yoruba indigenes and all Nigerians particularly those in the United Kingdom mourn the loss of Late Soldier, Drummer Lee Rigby, and pray that God will console his family.
