Nigeria in tough AWC draw
Defending champions and hosts Nigeria will face in South Africa in Group A of the African Women's Championship.
The eight-team tournament kicks off on 28 October with the final set to be played on 11 November.
The other two sides in group A are Algeria and Equatorial Guinea.
Cameroon, the losing finalists in the last edition in 2004, have been pooled in Group B where they will face DR Congo and Mali.
The other team in the group will be named later on Tuesday.
Caf will decide whether Ghana or Congo should play in the group after the Congolese failed to turn for the first leg encounter in Obuasi.
Nigeria have won every edition of the African Women's Championship since its inception in 1998.
