Ahmed's employment at Al-Neelain University was terminated in 2020 due to statements he made in the "Great Secrets of Brotherhood" documentary that appeared on the Al-Arabiya station. He talked about the need for security forces to kill peaceful demonstrators of the former head of state Omar al-Bashir's regime. He has been identified as a member of the Muslim Brotherhood.
