According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), five-time AFCON winners Cameroon defeated Burundi 3-O on Tuesday to round off the impressive list of qualified teams.
Twelve past AFCON winners, including three-time champion Nigeria, will be on display in January 2024, according to a breakdown of the eligible nations.
Cote d'Ivoire, the tournament's host, will be heading a potent 11-nation West African delegation that includes holders Senegal, Nigeria, Ghana, Guinea, and Burkina Faso, among many.
After a valiant performance in the qualifying rounds, Tanzania, representing East Africa, returns for a second final.
