A Senior Lecturer at the University of Ghana Business School, Dr Jabril Mohammed, has raised concerns about the long-term sustainability of the MahamaCares initiative.

According to Dr Mohammed, relying solely on donations may not be sufficient to ensure the program's longevity.

Speaking on the JoyNews AM Show on April 30, 2025, he emphasised the need for a substantial and consistent funding base to guarantee the initiative's success for generations to come. "The initiative should not be run solely on donations because it will not last.

It should have substantial funding to help sustain it for generations to come," he stated.
