The 2017 U-20 Africa Cup of the Nations theme song, has been unleashed as Zambia gets ready to host the tournament.

The song, titled “Imiti Ukula Empanga”, translation: small trees have the potential to grow big and make the bush.

The title of the song is necessary as the U-20s have the potential to develop into senior players. This is evident as most players who have featured in youth tournaments have went on to represent their country in tournaments such the Africa Cup of the Nations and the FIFA World Cup.

Therefore as you watch the tournament, inscribe the names of impressive youngsters, because you will need them in the near future.

The song, was sung by Zambia’s most decorated musicians, Jordan Katembula, Wille and Mozegata.

It is expected to receive massive airplay on Radio stations across the country. Tax and Bus Drivers, as well as Club DJs can play an important role by playing the song as a notification to the public, that Zambia is hosting this tournament.

Rwanda showed Africa how to host the CHAN Championship, so as Cameroon in hosting the Women Africa Cup of the Nations. We look forward to Zambia, as they play a leading role in hosting the U-20 Africa Cup of the Nations.
