1.º de Agosto, another Angolan representative, enter the scene this Friday against Nziko from Cameroon, in a competition that takes place in the Republic of Cango Brazzaville.

The race, which has been contested since 1979, took a break in 2020 and 2021, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. In the last edition in Hammamet (Tunisia), the Angolan final ended in favour of the “military”, by 29 – 24.
