  • A self-proclaimed Ghanaian prophet, Evans Eshun, known as Ebo Noah, has resurfaced claiming recent floods in Accra validate his earlier prophecy.
  • At least 13 people died in the floods, which destroyed homes, roads, and businesses in the capital.
  • Eshun, previously arrested and remanded for predicting the world's end, was released and is now urging prayer and repentance, stating the rain is speaking for itself.

Evans Eshun, a Ghanaian self-styled prophet known as Ebo Noah, has reappeared in public discourse following devastating floods in Accra. He claims the torrential rains, which claimed at least 13 lives and caused widespread destruction, are a fulfillment of his earlier prophecy.

When we talk, you don’t listen, because I am not your pastor. I am not your prophet. I am nobody. But God said, ‘Ebo, go and tell the people that it will rain, it is going to flood.’

— Ebo NoahEbo Noah explains his prior pronouncements about rain and floods.

Eshun, who had been arrested and remanded in custody for predicting the world's end, announced his release in a video posted on Instagram. He urged Ghanaians to remain steadfast in prayer, asserting that his prophecy was beginning to manifest. "When we talk, you don’t listen, because I am not your pastor. I am not your prophet. I am nobody. But God said, ‘Ebo, go and tell the people that it will rain, it is going to flood,’" he stated, referencing his prior arrest as a consequence of his pronouncements.

I said it, and I was arrested. No problem, but now, see what is happening. See how people’s properties are being destroyed. See their lives.

— Ebo NoahEbo Noah reflects on his arrest and the current flood situation.

He expressed sadness over the destruction of property and lives, lamenting that people often require their religious leaders to confirm divine messages. "God can use anybody. I have seen it, and I said it, and I was arrested, but no problem, it is all good. But now I want you to do your own thing right," Eshun implored.

You want your pastor to say it before you believe. You want your prophet to say it before you believe. God can use anybody.

— Ebo NoahEbo Noah criticizes the public's reliance on established religious figures for validation.

Previously, Eshun had claimed divine instruction to build an ark in anticipation of a catastrophic flood. After a revelation that the flood would not occur as initially predicted, he announced God had instead directed him to build more arks. His subsequent arrest on December 31, 2025, stemmed from allegations of spreading online disinformation, leading to charges of false communication and publishing false news.

Father, is this the rain? Is the rain, Father? Father, have mercy. If this is the rain, have mercy. I am interceding for your people. Please, Father.
