Rainford Kalaba, a key player in the 2012 AFCON-winning squad, brings his own impressive credentials to the event. His achievements include a CAF Champions League title, two CAF Super Cup titles, and two CAF Confederation Cup titles, along with numerous domestic honors in DR Congo.

The star-studded guest list for the CAF Awards 2023 also includes football legends such as Samuel Eto’o, Abedi Pele, El Hadji Diouf, Emmanuel Adebayor, Jay-Jay Okocha, and others from various sporting disciplines. Additionally, a charity football game is scheduled at Marrakech Stadium on December 10th to honor earthquake victims.

This edition of the CAF Awards, spanning from November 2022 to September 2023 for men’s categories and December 2022 to November 2023 for women’s categories, promises to be even more memorable with the presence of these iconic personalities. The event will undoubtedly radiate grandeur and showcase the rich legacy of African football.
