The event boasted dignitaries from different countries, mentioning each person by name, doctor Khumalo captioned his post:
“A guest never forgets the host who treated him so kindly. Thank you, His Excellency Sakaria KONE Ambassador of Côte d´Ivoire in Afrique du Sud for your immense warmth towards us and inviting me to the launch of the Total Africa Cup of Nations to be held in Côte d´Ivoire in January 2024. To all ambassadors who were present thank you for your kindness and support.”
