4 de Abril Futebol Clube do Cuando Cubango, simply 4 de Abril is an Angolan sports club from the city of Menongue, in the southern province of Kuando Kubango.

The club is named after and in honor of April 4 2002, the day when the Angolan government and the rebels of UNITA signed a memorandum of understanding, as an addendum to the Lusaka Protocol that ended 27 years of a civil war that erupted right after the declaration of Angola's independence in 1975. The day has been declared as the Day of Peace in Angola and a national holiday.[1]

In 2015, the team finished 2nd in its series at the Gira Angola, Angola's second division championship and won a 2-leg playoff against the 2nd-ranked of the other Gira Angola series to secure a spot at the 2016 Girabola.[2]
