Representing various generations, and led by CAF Deputy General Secretary, Anthony Baffoe, the video also includes Cameroon’s Roger Miller, Mustafa El Haddaoui (Morocco), Jean Ssenide (Uganda), Wael Gomaa (Egypt), and El Hadji Diouf.

The steps for the #Safehands challenge as outlined in the video is as follows;

As a result of COVID-19, CAF has suspended all competitions until further notice and remain in constant with partners such as the World Health Organization, FIFA among others in the fight against the menace.
