Cyber activities and public prophecies

The confirmation followed widespread online reports linking the arrest to recent warnings issued by security agencies against individuals making public prophecies or declarations capable of causing fear, panic or public disorder. The police, however, did not disclose the specific allegations against Eshun or the exact nature of the conduct under investigation.

The statement added that “Police confirmation follows reports circulating online suggesting the arrest was linked to warnings issued by security agencies regarding the conduct of individuals making public declarations and prophecies that could cause fear or public disorder.

Ebo Noah’s ark and flood prophecy

Ebo Noah had drawn widespread attention in recent months after building a massive wooden ark and predicting a world-ending flood from December 25. He went viral in August after claiming he received a divine warning of a catastrophic three-year rainfall that would wipe out the world.

He said the structure, named the Ebo Noah Ark, was built under divine instruction, while urging the public to repent ahead of the prophesied disaster. Videos of the ark sparked intense media coverage and attracted visitors from across Ghana and other countries.

New revelation and postponed disaster

In a video statement released last week Thursday, Ebo Noah said the prophesied disaster did not occur because he received a new revelation following what he described as intense prayers, fasting and consultations with other religious leaders.

According to him, the new vision showed that the number of people seeking refuge in the ark from around the world far exceeded its capacity. He explained that he pleaded with God for intervention and was granted more time to build additional arks to accommodate everyone.
