Overview
- Ebo Noah, a self-styled Ghanaian prophet, had predicted a three-year global flood starting December 25 and promoted wooden arks as refuge.
- After no deluge occurred, he posted a new video saying the catastrophe was postponed and declared that "God has given us time."
- Local reports, including Ghana Web, say he has built about 10 arks, featured in viral videos across TikTok, YouTube and Instagram.
- Followers reportedly sold belongings and donated funds to support the ark effort, with some accounts alleging the money financed a luxury Mercedes purchase.
- Meteorologists and theologians reject the prophecy, noting no scientific basis for a global flood and citing biblical texts and practical flaws in the boats.
