AFRICA’s biggest soccer spectacle, the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon), will open with a star studded artist line-up on Saturday.
One of the performers is heavily pregnant afro-pop singer Siphokazi Mohapi who says though she has little knowledge of soccer, she is honoured to be part of the line-up.
“I am going to perform as a soloist and then as part of the group of artists at the end of the opening ceremony. The song is titled Sisebenzela and it was composed by Mam Sibongile Khumalo.
