Mali hosted Group B games while Mozambique hosted games in Group D; qualifiers in Groups A and D respectively were played last year.
The qualifiers will continue in June later this year with a quartet of the top African sides leading the various groups.
In Group A, reigning African Champions Tunisia posted a flawless record to gain maximum points ahead of Cameroon, Chad and Guinea.
In Group B, 2015 continental Champions Nigeria blitzed its way to the top with three straight wins with Uganda, Mali and Rwanda following.
In Group C, record African Champions Angola fended off tough competition from Egypt, Morocco and Democratic Republic of Congo.
In Group D, Senegal-who placed fourth at the 2017 African Championship- lead Mozambique, Central African Republic and Ivory Coast.
