The Confederation of African Football (CAF) is currently engaged in high-level discussions with the leadership of the PAMOJA Host Nations for the TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations 2027, as preparations for the continental showpiece begin to gather momentum.
The meeting brings together representatives from Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda—the three East African nations jointly awarded hosting rights for the tournament—under the PAMOJA initiative.
The delegation includes senior government officials as well as the presidents of the respective football associations: Hussein Mohammed of Kenya, Wallace Karia of Tanzania, and Moses Magogo of Uganda.
Leading the CAF delegation is Acting General Secretary Samson Adamu, who is steering discussions focused on key aspects of tournament preparation, coordination, and delivery across the three host countries.
While full details of the agenda remain under wraps, the engagement is understood to centre on strengthening collaboration between CAF and the host nations, ensuring that infrastructure development, logistics planning, and organisational frameworks are aligned with CAF standards ahead of the tournament.
The 2027 edition of the Africa Cup of Nations will mark a significant milestone, as it will be jointly hosted by three countries in the East African region under the PAMOJA branding, reflecting unity and shared responsibility in staging Africa’s premier football competition.
The ongoing talks are expected to pave the way for further technical assessments and implementation timelines as the countdown to AFCON 2027 continues.
