It seems that the African women's qualification was modified last year 

 

This document states that there will be a qualifying tournament at the end of 2019 in to define the african quota: https://cdn.dosb.de/user_upload/Olympische_Spiele/Tokio_2020/internationale_Qualifikationskriterien/IHF_-_Handball_20180315.pdf

The first link (April 2018) states that tournament is to be hold in "December 2018".

At the second link, the following paragraph is reported:

 

"

Denmark men fifth confirmed team in Tokyo 2020 handball competitions

By winning the 26th IHF Men’s World Championship (Germany/Denmark 2019) last month, Denmark’s men joined the French and Angolan women – winners of the 2018 EHF EURO and CAHB Women’s African Championship respectively – in confirming their place at the Games next year, alongside both the Japanese men’s and women’s teams as hosts.

"

It looks like there was a typing mistake in the official document

Thank you, @AIFHg but the African Federation calendar for 2019 shows an Olympic qualifying tournament in September 

 

I did not find information about it.

Maybe it's some misunderstanding between CAHB and IHF as African Champs are qualification to OQT, thus the part of the qualification system.
