Ayew, Kaita and Yaya<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Many football connoisseurs are of the view that it will be a wicked injustice on the part of the organizers of the GLO CAF Awards should the show end and the flagship prize pass Dede Ayew by at the Banquet Hall of the State House tonight.<\/p>\n

The campaign for the 22-year-old is based not on the fact that he is a son of Ghana, host of the prestigious continental awards; but because his growing mastery\u00a0of the game is obvious to escape even the blind.<\/p>\n

The Marseille winger has been shortlisted with two great sons from the continent- one from Mali in the person of Seydou Keita of Barcelona and the other\u00a0Manchester City and Cote d\u2019Ivoire\u2019s burly midfielder Yahaya Toure.<\/p>\n

The city of Accra is already electrified for the ceremony, the third on Ghanaian soil, which has other nominees competing for awards like the\u00a0National Team of the Year:\u00a0\u00a0Botswana,\u00a0Cote d\u2019Ivoire, Libya,\u00a0Niger,\u00a0and\u00a0Tunisia (CHAN Team).<\/p>\n

Cameroun, Nigeria and South Africa\u00a0have been shortlisted for Women\u2019s National Team of the Year prize, while\u00a0Esperance, MAS Fes (Morocco) and Wydad Athletic Club will be vying for the\u00a0Club of the Year Award.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Harouna Doula (Niger National Team),\u00a0Nabil Maaloul (Esperance- Tunisia)\u00a0\u00a0Rachid Taoussi (MAS Fes- Morocco)\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0Stanley Tshosane (Botswana National Team) have been shortlisted for the coach of the year award.<\/p>\n

The Most Promising Talent prize would be competed for by\u00a0Ahmed Elshenawy (Elmasry- Egypt),\u00a0\u00a0Ahmed Musa (VVV Venlo \u2013 Nigeria),\u00a0\u00a0Souleymane Coulibaly (Tottenham Hotspurs- Cote D\u2019Ivoire)\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0Banana Yaya (Esperance- Cameroon), while<\/p>\n

Nompumelelo Nyandani (South Africa),\u00a0Miriam Paixao Silva (Equatorial Guinea)\u00a0and Perpetua Nkwocha (Nigeria) are scrambling for the Women\u2019s Africa Player of the Year.<\/p>\n

The referee award\u00a0will see Alioum Neant (Cameroon),\u00a0Djamel Haimoudi (Algeria)\u00a0and\u00a0Noumandiez Doue (Cote d\u2019Ivoire) competing for honours.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The program would be spiced up by musical performances from\u00a0Zeynab, Gloria Bosman, Kwabena Kwabena, Efya,\u00a0and an Acrobatic Tumbling group known as Troop Agile from Kenya, among others.<\/p>\n

It was Didier Drogba, winner of the last event, who won it when Ghana hosted it in 2005.<\/p>\n
