The African Cup of Nations, GABON2017 group stage draw was done yesterday by CAF.
The tournament will be played between January 14 and February 5 in Libreville, Franceville, Oyem and Port Gentil; Gabon.
The tournament was under threat some months ago, following political unrest about presidential elections which was won narrowly by incumbent Ali Bongo. The situation however has since calmed.
