The co-main event will be a heavyweight contest between Justin Clarke and Abdoulaye Kane.
Clarke made it to last year's PFL Africa heavyweight final, defeating Jashell Ticha Awa and Maxwell Djantou Nana before losing to Abraham Bably.
Kane was disqualified in his quarterfinal matchup with Joffie Houlton last year but rebounded with finishes of Emmanuel Mukam and Ticha Awa.
