Sources: Tunisia voted in favor

Official sources revealed to “Hasport” that what is being circulated about Tunisia’s failure to vote in favor of Fawzi Lakja in the membership elections of the Football Association (FIFA) membership is unfounded.

The same sources indicated that Tunisia granted its voice to Fawzi Lakja, while the opposition voices were among the federations of Algeria, Angola, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Fawzi Lakjaa, President of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation, was re -elected as a member of the FIFA Council during the General Assembly of the Confederation of African Football (CAF), which was held yesterday in Cairo. This victory strengthens the site of the Graj on the African and international football scene, as it won 49 out of 52 votes, while there was one canceled paper, according to the sources of “Hasport”.

It should be noted that Fawzi Lakjaa was membership of the executive office of “Al -Kaf” for the first time on March 16, 2017, a representative of the North Africa region during the 39th general assembly in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa, after he excelled with 41 votes compared to only 7 votes for his Algerian opponent, Mohamed Rawawa; He was also re -elected for a second term for a period of four years in the membership of the FIFA Council on March 12, 2021, which enabled him to continue to hold prominent positions within the referee and review committees of the International Football Association.

During his career in Al -Kaf, Laqaa took important tasks, most notably the presidency of the Confederation Finance Committee, in addition to his active participation in several other committees, such as the Competitions and Clubs Committee; This renewal in the membership of the FIFA Council is an affirmation of its strong presence and its influential role in developing African football.
