Sports Opinion
Gulf Weekly Winning returns

Winning returns

Returning to something you love is always a nice feeling. It can be big or small in terms of importance, maybe even just returning home after work to that favourite chair that no one would ever actually claim ownership of, yet it goes without saying that it’s yours when you’re there. Last weekend, Zlatan Ibrahimovic returned to AC Milan colours and scored, whilst Serena Williams returned to her winning ways in the Auckland Classic for her first title in three years and her first since becoming a mother.

I’d like to clarify that I am not part of the Dawoodi Bohra community as published in the article in the previous week’s paper. I was part of it, as previously written for the reporter that wrote the feature. The Silver Kick Company, an award-winning, all-woman creative agency that I am the founder and managing director of, is proud to be the official agency for design work and digital marketing support for Sahiyo. We do this work passionately and pro-bono as we want to see an end to the practice of Female Genital Cutting (FGC) around the world.
