The Video Assistant Referees (VAR) team will be led by Bamlak Tessema Weyesa of Ethiopia, and supported by Janny Sikazwe (Zambia) and Elvis Guy Noupue Nguegoue (Cameroon).
Kamaku has been one of the outstanding officials in the tournament and officiated the quarter-final clash between Mali and Congo, which the former won 5-4 on penalties after a barren draw in regular time.
Morocco are hoping to become the first team to win the tournament twice in a row after winning the last edition held in 2018 while Mali have set sights on a maiden title after losing the 2016 final to DR Congo ion Kigali, Rwanda.
