Who is Ebo Noah and why is he building an ark like the biblical Noah?

A self-proclaimed Ghanaian prophet has been making headlines, especially on social media, for constructing a modern-day Noah’s ark.

With what began as a social media sensation and subject of public ridicule, Ebo Noah has continued to share several videos on TikTok showing him sawing timber and gradually building his ark.

Explaining his motive for building the ark, Ebo Noah claimed that God had warned him that the world would end on December 25, 2025, coinciding with Christmas Day.

In describing his vision, he stated that God would bring about great destruction, with heavy rains and floods devastating the earth.

He further explained that he had been instructed by God to build the ark to rescue souls who wished to be saved, just as described in the biblical story of Noah and the flood.

In many of his clips, Ebo is seen showing off the boats or building materials, claiming that he has built ten arks.

In a video titled "What Will Happen and How It Will Happen," posted on YouTube in August, Ebo claimed to have received a divine vision from God, who said it would rain for three years beginning on December 25.

His plan is to live on the ark for three years during this predicted mass flooding.

Ebo’s construction of the ark has generated both local and global attention, with his videos garnering millions of views and engagements on social media.

His arks, however, appear smaller in size compared to the Noah’s ark described in the Bible.

Meanwhile, in a separate video, Ebo Noah said he has begun a three-day fasting and prayer exercise to intercede for the world.
