TECNO announces MyPowerMoment winners

TECNO has announced the winners of its #MyPowerMoment Challenge, closing a continent-wide campaign that celebrated African creativity, youth expression and football culture inspired by the Africa Cup of Nations, it said on Tuesday.

The challenge, which ran across East and West Africa, invited students and young creators to share personal moments of triumph, joy and self-belief through short-form content. Submissions ranged from football-viewing reactions and campus celebrations to deeply personal stories of growth, drawing thousands of entries from across the continent.

According to the organisers, more than 10,000 entries were received during the campaign, reflecting strong engagement from young Africans and underscoring football’s role as a shared cultural language that connects communities.

Following the evaluation process, 10 creators emerged as grand prize winners. Four Nigerian students were selected alongside six winners from Tanzania and Kenya. The Nigerian winners are Kabir, a cybersecurity student at Bayero University Kano; Sedu, a theatre arts and film studies student at the University of Lagos; Iroegbu Praise Kelechi, a human physiology student at the University of Port Harcourt; and Roxy Omar, a TikTok content creator.
