A Ghanaian man has gone viral after footage emerged showing him standing in the middle of powerful floodwaters, arms raised in what appears to be a prayer for the waters to recede, in a scene that has drawn widespread comparisons to the biblical account of Moses parting the Red Sea.
The interesting video shows the shirtless man clinging to a metal pole in the midst of fast-moving brown floodwater, gesturing toward the current in what onlookers interpreted as an act of spiritual intercession, while a crowd watched from the bank.
The location of the incident has not been confirmed, though the flooding conditions visible in the video are consistent with the severe inundation recorded across multiple parts of Ghana this week.
The video has generated a mixture of amusement, admiration, and theological commentary on social media, with many users invoking the story of Moses and the parting of waters in their reactions.
The man’s identity has not been confirmed.
