This Monday (28), the Council of Great Benefactors of Flamengomeets in Gávea to elect new Emeritus, Meritorious and Greatly Beneficial Members. Among the candidates for the title of Benemérito is president Rodolfo Landim, widely favorite to receive him. However, with the elections approaching, there is a possibility that the political dispute will influence the meeting.
To become Meritorious of Flamengo, the partner must accumulate at least five years of services provided as Emeritus. Landim received the title of Emeritus in 2019, when he assumed the presidency, and now completes the period necessary to apply for the new honor precisely in the year in which he leaves the position.
Landim is one of the candidates eligible to be voted on by the Council of Great Benefactors for one of the three available vacancies. Despite the limited number of vacancies, he remains the favorite, being considered the most successful president in Flamengo's recent history and recognized by members for the improvements made at the Gávea headquarters.
An eventual rejection of Landim's candidacy would be unexpected, but the electoral climate brings a small chance of this happening. The president of the Council, Marcelo Antero, for example, recently signed a request for clarification on management expenses. In addition, supporters of candidates running for president withRodrigo Dunshee (supported by Landim) also make up the Council. This group includes allies of Luiz Eduardo Baptista, the Bap, accused by the Dunshee campaign of using his position on the Board of Directors to influence the electoral process.
Although Landim is widely favored in the vote to receive the title of Benemérito do Flamengo, the meeting could, in a less likely scenario , becoming a stage for political disputes.
