Make pawn in the centre squares have extremely large value, forcing the best moves by White to be to push d4 and e4. Also turn off alpha-beta. If that still doesn't work then clearly your code is incorrect. Alpha-beta never changes the result (unless implemented wrongly). By the way, it makes no sense to use minimax instead of negamax.
