Ghanaian Prophet Builds ‘Noah’s Ark’, Warns of 2025 Christmas Flood Despite Biblical Promise

A Ghanaian preacher, popularly known as Prophet Ebo Noah, has sparked widespread debate after completing the construction of a self-styled “Noah’s Ark” and warning that a catastrophic flood would begin on Christmas Day, December 25, 2025. The prophecy, which first gained attention in August 2025 through a viral Instagram video, claims that a divine revelation instructed him to prepare for a three-year rainfall that would submerge the earth.

According to the prophet, the ark he built would serve as the only refuge when the foretold disaster strikes. His declaration drew significant attention and criticism, especially as it appeared to contradict the biblical account in Genesis 9, where God promised never to destroy the earth again by flood, symbolised by the rainbow covenant.

Hours before Christmas, Prophet Noah issued a final update on social media, stating that he had fasted and prayed for three weeks, called on people to repent, and interceded on behalf of Ghana and the world. Dressed in his signature brown sackcloth, he wrote that “whatever happens” was now in God’s hands, reinforcing his belief that events would unfold according to divine will.

The prophecy has generated mixed reactions across social media, with some followers expressing fear and concern, while others dismissed the warning as sensational and unfounded. The episode adds to a growing list of end-of-the-world predictions and apocalyptic prophecies made by religious figures across Africa, particularly during festive seasons.

The development also comes amid renewed public interest in doomsday predictions, following past claims by scientists and clerics about potential global collapse or the end of the world in the coming years. Despite the controversy, no scientific or meteorological authority has supported claims of a Christmas flood, leaving the prophecy firmly in the realm of religious belief and public speculation.
