Doomsday 'scammer' Ebo Noah arrested

The Ghana Police Service has reportedly arrested self-acclaimed prophet Evans Eshun, who gained public attention after claiming to have received a divine vision predicting a global flood on December 25, 2025.

According to multiple reports, Prophet Ebo Noah, who is popularly known as Ebo Noah, was picked up by the GPS Special Cyber Vetting Team on December 31, 2025.

A photo of the arrest, which has gone viral, shows Ebo Noah in handcuffs at what looks like a police facility.

The self-proclaimed Ghanaian prophet made headlines, especially on social media, for constructing a modern-day Noah’s ark.

Explaining his motive for building the ark, Ebo Noah claimed that God had warned him that the world would end on December 25, 2025, coinciding with Christmas Day.

In describing his vision, he stated that God would bring about great destruction, with heavy rains and floods devastating the earth.

He further explained that he had been instructed by God to build the ark to rescue souls who wished to be saved, just as described in the biblical story of Noah and the flood.

In many of his clips, Ebo is seen showing off the boats or building materials, claiming that he has built ten arks.

Who is Ebo Noah and why is he building an ark like the biblical Noah?

In a video titled “What Will Happen and How It Will Happen,” posted on YouTube in August, Ebo claimed to have received a divine vision from God, who said it would rain for three years beginning on December 25.

He planned to live on the ark for three years during this predicted mass flooding.

Ebo’s construction of the ark has generated both local and global attention, with his videos garnering millions of views and engagements on social media.

It, however, turned out that the supposed ark, which were actually boats, did not belong to him, and on December 25, 2025, there was no flood.
