Thank you for your question, I appreciate your concern. I would like you to answer a few questions, after which I can come to a more conclusion.
1. how many days does the fever last each time?
2. associated symptoms like cough or shivering or abdominal pain, body pain
3. any loss of weight in the past few months
4. anyone in his house or workers had TB ?
5. any contact with animals
So far, I would say from his symptoms that frequent fevers with weakness could Indicate infectious mononucleosis or tuberculosis, brucellosis is also a possibility. If his malaria was not treated properly 2 years back, few malarial parasites could be released now and then causing fever.
Please do get back to me with more information and I will clarify further doubts. Hope you find this. useful.
