Kalaba boasts of having won a  CAF Champions League title, two  CAF Super Cup titles and two CAF Confederation Cup titles with numerous domestic titles in DR Congo.

On the sidelines of the event, a charity football game will be held at Marrakech Stadium on Sunday, 10 December at 16h00 local time (15h00 GMT) to honour earthquake victims. 

These renowned personalities will bring an aura of grandeur to the event and help make this edition of the CAF Awards even more memorable.
