Ebo Noah
The man who spent months stirring national anxiety with claims of apocalyptic visions involving a catastrophic flood, Evans Eshun—popularly known as Ebo Noah—has been apprehended by the Ghana Police Service.
Police sources say Ebo Noah was arrested on Wednesday, December 31, 2025, following a string of controversial incidents that began with a failed doomsday prediction on Christmas Day and culminated in a highly publicised appearance at a major music concert.
Authorities had raised concerns over reports that hundreds of people, including some who reportedly travelled from neighbouring countries, abandoned their homes and gathered at his so-called “ark site”, arriving with personal belongings. Security agencies feared the situation could escalate into a humanitarian and public safety crisis.
The ‘Flood of 2025’: A Prophecy That Failed
Ebo Noah first drew widespread attention in August 2025 after claiming he had received a divine instruction to build 10 modern-day arks to save humanity from a three-year global flood.
He repeatedly asserted that torrential rains would begin on December 25, 2025, likening the event to the biblical flood.
For several months, his TikTok and YouTube platforms featured videos of the 30-year-old, often clad in sackcloth, overseeing the construction of wooden vessels. He claimed to have procured more than 250,000 pieces of timber, describing the arks as the only refuge for believers.
When December 25 passed without incident, Ebo Noah released a viral video claiming that his prayers and a three-week fast had persuaded God to postpone the impending destruction.
From Prophecy to Performance: The Rapperholic Appearance
Public reaction intensified after Ebo Noah appeared on stage at Sarkodie’s ‘Rapperholic 2025’ concert, dressed in his customary attire, where he urged the audience to celebrate because the predicted disaster had been delayed.
The appearance, widely circulated on social media, triggered public outrage, with many accusing him of deceiving the public and demanding his arrest.
As Ghanaians prepare for December 31 Watch Night services, the Ghana Police Service has reiterated that the ban on prophecies that induce fear and panic remains in force.
Police warn that any individual who issues declarations capable of causing public alarm, tension, or insecurity will face appropriate legal action.
