Africa-Press – Mozambique. The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has announced an exciting duo of celebrated African entertainers as hosts for the prestigious CAF Awards 2025, scheduled for 19 November at the Mohammed VI Polytechnic University in Rabat, Morocco.
The ceremony will kick off at 19h00 local time (18h00 GMT).
This year’s edition will be anchored by two icons whose artistry and influence mirror the continent’s cultural richness: Angélique Kidjo and Oualass.
Kidjo, the globally acclaimed Beninese singer, brings decades of artistic excellence to the CAF stage.
A five-time Grammy Award winner and one of Time Magazine’s 100 most influential women, she remains a powerful cultural ambassador for Africa.
Her work, which fuses traditional African rhythms with contemporary global sounds, has earned her a reputation as one of the most dynamic performers of her generation.
Beyond music, Kidjo is a dedicated humanitarian, serving as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and an outspoken advocate for women’s empowerment, education, and the preservation of African heritage.
Joining her is Moroccan comedian and actor Oualass, whose sharp humour and improvisational brilliance have endeared him to audiences across the continent.
His rising profile and ability to engage diverse crowds make him a fitting co-host for an evening that celebrates Africa’s finest football talents.
Known for his energetic presence and relatable comedic style, Oualass is expected to bring colour, charm and entertainment to the ceremony.
CAF says pairing Kidjo’s cultural gravitas with Oualass’ vibrant showmanship reflects its commitment to hosting an Awards ceremony that not only honours football excellence but also showcases Africa’s artistic depth.
The CAF Awards 2025 will crown the best players, teams, and contributors to African football over the past year, with organisers promising a night that blends top-tier sport with the continent’s unmatched creative spirit.
