The CAF President’s Excellent Achievement Award went to Presidents Museveni, Ruto, and Suluhu Hassan—a transparent recognition of the rising energy of East African soccer cooperation.
The honour, introduced in Rabat, acknowledges their “visionary help” that raised East Africa’s profile. The central achievement cited by Dr. Motsepe was their joint internet hosting of a profitable 2024 CHAN beneath the Pamoja banner.
This collaboration, which set a benchmark for regional unity and improved infrastructure, was instrumental in securing the rights to collectively host the AFCON 2027.
This prestigious award affirms that these leaders have laid sturdy foundations for the area’s future sporting development.
