Ghanaians React to Arrest of Self-Proclaimed Prophet Ebo Noah After Failed Doomsday Prediction

On December 31, 2025, Evans Eshun, widely known as Prophet Ebo Noah, was arrested by the Ghana Police Service following public outrage over his controversial doomsday predictions. Earlier in the year, Ebo Noah had claimed that the world would end by flood on December 25, prompting him to construct arks for rescue. However, on the predicted date, he was spotted attending a concert, which he later attributed to a change in his prophecies after prayer. This contradiction sparked significant backlash, with many accusing him of exploiting donations from followers. Social media reactions to his arrest have largely been positive, with users expressing satisfaction and calling for stricter regulations on prophetic claims in the country. The incident has reignited discussions about accountability among self-proclaimed religious leaders in Ghana.
