CAF Awards 2023: Ghetto Kids to perform at Africa's biggest awards stage
Uganda's dance group, The Triplets Ghetto Kids, are set to perform at the Confederation of African Football (CAF) Awards ceremony slated for Monday in Marrakech, Morocco.
CAF is set to award the finest African talents that trade both on the continent and beyond the borders.
Meanwhile, this is the latest of the many enormous achievements the dance troupe has reached in both the sporting and social spheres.
The Ghetto Kids have previously been at the 2022 World Cup, where they had engagements with some of football's greatest names, including FUFA President Gianni Infantino.
They also shared a freestyle casual dance with Brazilian star Neymar Jr, Argentine Sergio Aguero and French star Kylian Mbappe.
At the CAF Awards, the ever-jolly dancers will meet and entertain the continent's creme de la creme, including Mohamed Salah, Victor Oshimen, Achraf Hakimi and many more.
