APS survivor Ahmad Nawaz elected president of Oxford debate society

APS survivor Ahmad Nawaz has been elected as the president of the Oxford debate society.

Ahmad Nawaz is one of the survivors of the Army Public School massacre of 2014 that claimed the lives of at least 147 people.

Taking it to social media on Sunday, Ahmad shared the update with the world on his achievement.

“Today is the most monumental and history-making moment of my life! I am so extremely proud to announce that I have been elected president of the Oxford Union, one of the world’s biggest and historical platforms!” he tweeted.

“I am so extremely grateful to my parents who have been so incredibly supportive of everything! My friends who have been with me throughout this journey. And finally, my team, who have worked so exceptionally hard to make this truly historical moment happen! Thank you.” he added. 

He secured admission to the University of Oxford in 2020.

 

He has also served as the Treasurer of this incredible and historical institution.
