Speaking after the court proceedings, she pleaded for leniency, insisting that her son is not mentally ill and should be forgiven for his actions. According to her, Ebo Noah did not fully understand the consequences of what he was doing at the time.

She attributed his actions to the nature of content created on TikTok, as well as his lack of employment, which she said may have influenced his behaviour and led him to act the way he did.

She also stated that her son does not have financial means to build any ark, contrary to claims that he was consttructing 10 arks.
