ENGLISH TRANSLATION

The news of the birth of the baby boy born at 4.24 p.m., the third in line to the throne of the United Kingdom, was announced at about 8.30 on Monday, 22 July, 2013.

According to the “Yoruba Proverbs” as translated by Oyekan Owomoyela “Good fortune does not arrive without being trailed by the sound of the gudu-gudu drum” meaning (Good fortune must be greeted with rejoicing), the shout of joy that was herald by the entire world was surely more than the gudu-gudu drum.  The entire country, the prominent and the lowly have been rejoicing with the paternal Great-grandmother – Queen Elizabeth II, the paternal Grand-father, the father and Mother, Duchess Kate and Prince William since the news was broken to the teaming Journalists and the public that have been awaiting for this news.  The Military gave twenty-one gun salute to welcome the new baby to the world.

Congratulations to the new father and mother as well as the entire family.
