The Nation broadcaster Malawi Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) has secured rights to beam all 52 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) games, MBC Director General George Kasakula has confirmed.
He said MBC is working with partners that have helped to secure the rights and has since asked prospective sponsors in the country and beyond to seize the opportunity and advertise their products and services on MBC platforms during the games.
The games kick off tomorrow, the hosts Cameroon taking on Burkina Faso at 6 pm and the second game of the day will be Ethiopia up against Cape Verde at 9 pm.
According to Eurosport, the reigning champions, Algeria, are in imperious form heading into the tournament and are intent on extending their record unbeaten run when they face Sierra Leone, Equatorial Guinea and even Ivory Coast in Group E. The Elephants are also gunning for glory despite perhaps lacking the star power of years gone by.- MBC Online Services.
