The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) has closed down the Ebenezer Miracle Worship Centre, belonging to Prophet Ebenezer Adarkwa Yiadom, popularly known as Prophet One (Opambour), at Ahenema-Kokoben in the Ashanti Region for operating without the required environmental permit.
The enforcement action was undertaken by the EPA National Compliance Team in collaboration with the EPA Ashanti Regional Office as part of a special environmental compliance and enforcement exercise on Thursday, November 12, 2026.
The Authority has ordered the immediate cessation of operations at the facility and served an enforcement notice requiring the church to take immediate steps to address the permit violation.
The action underscores the EPA’s commitment to enforcing Ghana’s environmental regulations.
