While Medeama SC was busy fighting for the league crown, viral socialite Ebo Noah was busy fighting the weather elements in a display that has completely divided sports fans online.

Ebo Noah prays to stop rain

Ebo Noah is no stranger to rain-related controversies. In late 2025, he dominated headlines across Ghana after "prophesying" that the world would be destroyed by a catastrophic flood in December of that year.

Taking the prediction a step further, he claimed to be building a modern-day Noah’s Ark to rescue those who believed in his calling.

On Sunday, when a heavy downpour began to compromise the pitch and threaten an abandonment of the championship match, Noah took it as a personal challenge.

Witnesses watched in amusement and shock as he threw himself onto the sodden turf, lifting his hands to the heavens and loudly commanding the storm to hold back.

Whether it was divine intervention or just a lucky break in the Tarkwa weather, the rain genuinely dried up shortly after his dramatic display.

The cleared skies breathed new life into Medeama SC, who went on to utterly demolish Heart of Lions in a 7-goal thriller. The 5-2 victory officially crowned Medeama as the champions of the 2025/2026 Ghana Premier League season, sparking wild celebrations that quickly blended with memes of Noah's muddy prayers.
