A Court document indicates that the accused admitted in his investigation caution statement that the boat he referred to as an “ark” in the videos did not belong to him but rather for a fisherman at a boat yard in Edina in the Central Region of Ghana.
“The suspect further admitted that his claims were false and acknowledged that there was no impending flood intended to destroy the world, but all are his own fabrications,” the document added.
