The Filipino Migrants: OFWS: Family Day celebrated in Abuja Nigeria

A PPA-sponsored Family Day

On Easter Sunday, OFWs in Abuja Nigeria celebrated the Family Day held at the Horse and Country Club, Jabi.

Events like this one at least make friends and families gather and enjoy even for a day - a clean, wholesome fun. This event was sponsored by Pusong Pinoy Association. President John Hernandez and PRO Gel Llames are on leave. The very active exco members prepared this event led by Sheen, the Vice Prez and all the other officers - Sherwin, James, Mercy, Andrea (who has just arrived from her holidays).

As always Dennis Banasihan provided the amusement and entertainment.

Pictures below showed the active participation of friends and family members:

...just plain enjoying the moment...Angie, James, clifford, Lot-lot, Janice, Mayette among others...

The first game: Egg Bashing (Basagan ng Itlog)

Each fresh egg was put inside a transparent plastic bag with water. This bag was tied tightly with a long string which was then tied to the waist of the contestants – a pair. The egg was positioned in front of each pair and had to be bashed by dangling and hitting without the aid of hands. It was done by just the movement from the waist.

...amidst the laughter and walang katapusang kantyawan....MCDOO and partner won the much contested BASAGAN NG ITLOG. Marisa and Alan, ayun hinihingal pa!

The second game: MULTI-TASKING GAME - Densyu says - version of Simon Says

He called the macho guys. As they came forward the instruction was given. Densyu calls an act to be done and while doing the first action, the second order has to be done and while doing the first and second, the third is done and so on…

TJ emerged as the best in multi-tasking followed by Noel and then Tirso.

Macho men preparing for the game...

the guys...combing while fanning while walking....

...and doing all those actions...including kicking a ball while going to market and back and sitting in a chair....

The third game: The Longest Line the group can produce. These are from items the contestants had or carried with them.

The members of the group scrambled to produce more items to add to the length of their line....

and more and more items were produced to lengthen their lines....

...and to help their team to win...Clifford, Sean and Konrad stripped and added their shirts to the line! Ayan ang mga tunay na macho! Much to the amusement of Lot-lot and the spectators...
