He was the first person to serve as Vice President as well as Acting President in the Maldives. In a report, it was found out Ibrahim along with Ibrahim Nasir and more people planned and succeeded to overthrow Mohamed Amin Didi as President.{{Cite news |last=Hamdhoon |first=Mohamed |date=16 October 2020 |title=އިބްރާހިމް ދީދީ: ބާރުވެރިކަން، އިންގިލާބު އަދި އަރުވާލުން! |trans-title=Ibrahim Didi: Power, Revolution and Exile! |url=https://mihaaru.com/report/81661 |access-date=6 September 2024 |work=Mihaaru}}
