  • so-called lifeboats
  • Suspicions of misuse of funds

Accra, Ghana – A man named Eboah Noah has sparked widespread controversy and outrage on social media. This comes after he appeared in videos claiming to be a prophet and predicting an imminent global flood. He also claims to be building wooden ships in Ghana to save humanity from the impending disaster, in a scene reminiscent of the story of the Prophet Noah.

Who is Ibuh Noah?

According to the videos circulating online, Eboah Noah presents himself as having received a “divine revelation” of an impending global flood. He urges people to believe him and join him before it is too late.

The man appears surrounded by a group of followers, speaking confidently about his prophecies, without any recognized religious authority or official backing.

so-called lifeboats

Videos circulating online show Eboah Noah constructing several wooden ships. He claims they are intended to save his followers from the impending flood.

Observers assert that these ships do not meet any engineering or scientific standards. This reinforces suspicions that they are merely a publicity stunt to attract attention and raise funds.

Suspicions of misuse of funds

The controversy intensified further after other videos surfaced showing Iboe Noah driving a luxury car. It was alleged that the car was purchased with donations from his followers, leading to accusations of exploiting religion for personal gain.

To date, no official statements have been released confirming the source of his funds. However, these images have sparked widespread anger and raised serious questions about his true intentions.

Official and community reactions

There are no official warnings from Ghanaian authorities or weather centers regarding a global flood.

Experts and observers have described the events as a dangerous superstition and an exploitation of the religious faith of some groups.

Social media activists have deemed it blatant religious fraud that warrants legal intervention.

Religious and media warnings

Religious scholars and experts have confirmed that claiming prophethood is one of the most dangerous forms of deception. They warned against being misled by such claims, especially when they are accompanied by fundraising and the creation of widespread fear.

The story of the self-proclaimed prophet in Ghana once again highlights the dangers of exploiting religion on social media platforms, particularly given the lack of awareness among some followers. While unofficial investigations and public disbelief continue, the undeniable truth remains that there is no scientific or religious basis for the flood claims. What is being circulated is nothing more than a disturbing media frenzy.
