Not only that, most of the people participated in almost all the activities with full vigor, energy and enthusiasm. It was truly mesmerizing to see the positive energy oozing out from the participating teams and their excitement in winning the medals and prizes. It would not be exaggeration to say that, positivity and fun were in the air of Ahmedi Garden on 06 April 2018.

Furthermore, “AMUOBA Family Day Out” was attended by many prominent senior Aligarians with their families, who are holding very high positions in Oil Sector as well as private companies and seldom seen in such gatherings.

Last but not the least, AMUOBA Kuwait Chapter is grateful to all those Aligarians, who graced the event by participating and assure that, it will keep organizing such events more frequently to establish a bonding among AMU Alumni and their families in Kuwait. Thus, AMUOBA President and his team striving hard to translate his signature statement that, “AMUOBA is by you, of you and for you” into reality. Nevertheless, it will be unfair, if the men behind the 4 weeks of immaculate planning and meticulous execution are not acknowledged and they are Mr. Tanwir Alam – President, Mr. Asad Khan – Vice President, Mr. Mustafa Javed Warsi – General Secretay, Mr. Sabah Omar – Jt. Secretary, Mr. Syed Naved Asghar – OSD, Mr. Neyaz Akhtar – DOSD and the Executive Members – Mr. Asim Jameel, Mr. Ahteshamullah Khan, Mr. Abdul Ahad, Mr. Habibullah, Mr. Mohammad Azharuddin, Mr. Mohammed Parvez Khan, Mr. Mumtaz Alam Siddiqui and Mr. Tariq Waseem.
Hence, Team AMUOBA deserves all the accolades and appreciation for getting together like “pearls in the necklace” to make “AMUOBA Family Day Out” memorable.
