Social media sensation and popular self-acclaimed prophet, Evans Eshun, also known as Ebo Noah has been remanded by the Adenta Circuit Court for two weeks after he was arraigned on charge of publication of false news with intent to cause fear and panic.
Ghana Police on December 31, 2025 picked up the 33-year-old over allegations of publishing several videos claiming that the world would be destroyed by a flood on Christmas Day [December 25, 2025].
In court on Friday, January 2, presided over by Her Honour Angela Attachie, she ordered for a psychiatric evaluation of the accused person at any of the government psychiatric facilities before the next adjourned date.
Per the brief facts of the case Ebo Noah, a private security guard in Accra admitted in his investigation caution statement, that he circulated the said videos on his Facebook, TikTok and YouTube accounts.
The prosecution further alleged that, Ebo Noah stated that the boat he referred to as an ark in the videos did not belong to him but was owned by a fisherman at a boat yard in Elmina in the Central Region.
“The suspect further admitted that his claims were false and acknowledged that there was no impending flood intended to destroy the world, but all are his own fabrications.”
The case has since been adjourned to January 15.
Background
In the months leading to Christmas, Ebo Noah, the self-acclaimed prophet posted multiple videos across his various social media platforms, urging interested parties to acquire tickets for seats on his God-inspired ark, which was to save mankind, a repeat of Genesis chapters 6-9 documenting Biblical Noah’s ark.
After gaining prominence with his warnings, Ebo Noah again took to social media and on some musical concert platforms to disclose that his incessant prayers had averted the floods which was due on December 25.
