While many saw Ibrahim Mahama’s gesture as a display of deep brotherly affection, others questioned whether it adhered to official protocols.

Beyond the viral moment, Ibrahim Mahama also made a significant contribution by donating GH₵100,000 to support the victims. The announcement of his donation was met with cheers from the community, who expressed gratitude for his generosity.

President Mahama, addressing the gathering, acknowledged the challenges caused by the flooding and promised a long-term solution. He unveiled plans to allocate funds for the next phase of the Berekusu Sea Defence Project in the 2025 budget.

"Pls ask why Ibrahim, a businessman and a brother, is driving the president and why it’s not safe for him to do so. There is a conflict of interest because he didn’t pay him for driving him, and safety concerns in case something happens Ibrahim is not trained to do so."

Nanaezze said:

"Such a pillar in the life of his elder brother. We all need such supporting personalities."
