“Lumumba”, le supporter star de la CAN, décroche un partenariat avec TECNO
Having risen to prominence during the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations thanks to his spectacular tribute to Patrice Lumumba, Congolese supporter Michel Kuka Mboladinga, nicknamed "Lumumba," has reached a new milestone. The iconic figure in the stands has just signed a major partnership with the mobile phone brand TECNO.
Having gone viral for his static pose during DRC matches, dressed in a costume inspired by the Congolese independence hero, the young man made a lasting impression far beyond the stadiums. His image, a symbol of patriotism and national pride, quickly spread across the continent and social media.
By securing his services as an ambassador, TECNO is capitalizing on the notoriety he has built through his passion for football and on the authenticity of a figure who has become a true public icon in just a few weeks. This collaboration illustrates the rise of influencer marketing in Africa, where personalities from the stands can now attract major brands.
The story of "Lumumba" is one of meteoric rise: a simple supporter before the competition, he is now one of the most recognizable faces in Congolese football. This trajectory confirms that the Africa Cup of Nations not only reveals talent on the field, but also symbols capable of uniting an entire nation.
