Host Morocco also had a remarkable night; winning in five categories.
Nigeria made history in Marrakech, Morocco, on Monday night, sweeping the Men's and Women's CAF Player-of-the-Year Awards.
This marks a remarkable feat, as no other nation has ever won both coveted prizes in the same year.
Victor Osimhen and Asisat Oshoala rewrote history, becoming the King and Queen of African football in a night of triumph for Nigerian talent.
The celebration continued as the Super Falcons were crowned the continent's best national women's team for the year.
Also, Chiamaka Nnadozie, the Super Falcons' goalkeeper, secured the Goalkeeper of the Year award.
Three Super Falcons players - Michelle Alozie, Ohale Osinachi, and Oshoala - were included in the prestigious Women's Africa XI team.
However, it was surprising to see Nnadozie, the continent's best goalkeeper, missing from the list.
Victor Osimhen was the sole Nigerian representative in the Men's Africa XI team, highlighting his impressive season and impact on the continent.
Host Morocco also had a remarkable night, winning in five categories, including the national team of the year for men following their unforgettable outing at the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
