The family of the World Boxing Council send our heartfelt condolences, following the passing of Emir Sheihk Nawaf Al Ahmad Al-Sabah.
He dedicated his life to the service of his beloved country for six decades, from the age of twenty five and although he never sought the limelight or to create a high profile, the work he did and the results he achieved, stand for all time and will pass the test of time.
In spite of his health problems, with the help of his half brother Crown Prince Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad al Sabah who now succeeds him, he displayed total dedication and commitment, serving his country with intelligence, wisdom and compassion. This included the re-balancing of the economy, as international oil prices fluctuated.
The passing of Emir Sheikh Nawaf Al Ahmad Al Sabah is a conclusion, but due to his life, love and work, it provides the precious present of the future.
Allah greets him with a warm smile and a tender embrace. He will forever be remembered by his People and The World, as a gentle man and a gentleman.
