Malawians are not sure if Football Association of Malawi (Fam) would be among the beneficiaries.
Malawi’s vote was casted by FAM boss Walter Nyamilandu during the Fifa elections in Switzerland on Friday alongside general secretary, Suzgo Nyirenda and first vice-president, James Mwenda.
“Osamakwera yakuphwa [You don’t go for a losing candidate],” once said Nyamilandu.
Infantino beat Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim al-Khalifa 115-88 during the second round of voting.
The promised money will come from Fifa’s coffers, but there is no indication yet if the aid is part of annual Financial Assistance Programme (FAP funding which goes to every member association.
Under FAP, each member association receives $250,000 (K183 million) annually from Fifa for approved football development projects.
