Wale busari03 mins

The Ghana Police Service has announced the arrest of Evans Eshun, widely known as Ebo Noah, over activities linked to cyber monitoring operations. The arrest was confirmed in a statement released on Wednesday and published on the police’s official website. According to the police, Eshun was picked up by the Inspector General of Police’s Special Cyber Vetting Team as part of ongoing surveillance aimed at tackling cyber-related conduct, especially ahead of 31st night religious services. The confirmation came amid widespread online speculation suggesting the arrest was connected to recent warnings from security agencies against individuals issuing public prophecies or declarations capable of triggering fear, panic or public unrest. While acknowledging the reports, the police did not reveal the exact allegations against Eshun or specify the actions being investigated. “The Ghana Police Service has confirmed the arrest of a man identified as Evans Eshun, also known as Ebo Noah, by the Inspector General of Police’s Special Cyber Vetting Team,” the statement said. “The arrest was carried out as part of ongoing police efforts to monitor and address cyber related activities, particularly in the period leading up to 31st night religious services. “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. At this stage, police have not publicly detailed the specific allegations against the suspect or the nature of the conduct under investigation.” Last week Thursday, Ebo Noah had released a video in which he claimed that a previously prophesied disaster did not happen because he later received a new revelation. He said this followed intense prayers, fasting and consultations with other religious leaders. According to him, the fresh vision showed that the number of people seeking refuge in the ark from around the world exceeded its capacity. He added that he pleaded with God for intervention and was granted additional time to construct more arks to accommodate everyone.

Bauchi Governor Bala Mohammed Accuses Federal Government Of Using EFCC To Target Him Over APC Refusal

Wale busari04 mins

Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed has accused the Federal Government of using the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to target him and members of his cabinet because he refused to join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). The governor made the allegation on Wednesday in Bauchi while signing the 2026 appropriation bill into law, following an ambassadorial award for safety from the Institute of Safety Professionals in Nigeria. He revealed that one of his commissioners is currently being held by the EFCC. “As a governor and leader of the opposition, my commissioner has been detained and will not be released. Even with constitutional immunity, my name was mentioned in a court motion in Nigeria—me, Bala Mohammed,” he said. Mohammed claimed that the APC-led federal government is using institutions like the EFCC and the courts to harass Nigerians who are not aligned with the ruling party. He insisted that no amount of pressure would force him to join the APC. The statement comes after the EFCC arraigned Bauchi State Commissioner for Finance, Yakubu Adamu, over alleged N5.79 billion money laundering. Adamu is accused of conspiring with two others, who remain at large, to launder N4.65 billion between June and December 2023. The governor expressed frustration that despite his immunity, his name was included in the EFCC motion against his commissioner. “I woke up to a notification accusing me of terrorism. I don’t need to respond publicly, but politics has clearly taken a troubling turn in Nigeria,” he said. As chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors’ Forum, Mohammed warned that he would no longer remain silent if the federal government continues what he described as persecution. “If they don’t stop, we are going to declare war. I won’t allow anyone to criminalise me because I’m not in their party, and I refuse to join the APC,” he stated. He also criticised the federal government for failing to deliver projects in Bauchi, pointing out that despite controlling the bulk of national resources, it has not provided a single kilometre of road or water infrastructure in the state. Mohammed further condemned the planned implementation of new tax laws without addressing alleged discrepancies in the gazetted copy.

Our deepest condolences go to the families and loved ones of the victims,” the statement read.
