The new trend on the streets is geared towards an awards ceremony purported to be from the United Nation (UN), conferred on numerous personalities in Ghana.
An underground rapper who goes by the name His Excellency Doctor Ambassador Kwame Owusu Fordjour who says he's a diplomatic and a human activist has brought the country to a state of confusion for using the name of former UN secretary General, the late Kofi Annan and the United Nations to dish out awards to personalities in the country.
Dr Fordjour since the start of this year has been moving from one office to the other giving awards to personalities for their excellent contributions to humanity over the years.
The Grande Ceremony happened at the Alisa Hotel in Accra on Saturday 29th August, 2020, where individuals were awarded for the outstanding services. Notable personalities who graced the occasion were rappers Sarkodie, D-Black, Media personality Nathaniel Attoh of Joy sports and so on.
Before the ceremony, other personalities including Deputy Health minister Hon. Okoe Boye, Minerals commission chairman Hon. S.K Boafo, Australian Ambassador to Ghana, GFA Execuive committee member Frederick Acheampong, Ashanti Region NPP chairman Wontumi, Municipal Chief Executives etc. had already received their awards in their offices. Others like, Captain smart received theirs after the ceremony.
The awards came under serious scrutiny when people started posting their plaques on social media, others decided to check the source of the awards and ultimately the research was fruitful when it got established that the United Nations had no idea of any awards going on in this part of the world.
Dr Fordjour has since gone into hiding and throwing jabs at people questioning his awards. The awardees has been subjected to several trolls as to how they couldn't decipher fake from original.
The mystery of the whole situation is how he was able to bring all these people together, Moreover how he moved from high profile offices to the other but none was able to fish him out as being fake.
Words on the streets says, he took monies from the awardees before conferring on them what's now being referred to as water bottle awards.
It's now an established fact the Dr Fordjour is an underground rapper who is struggling to the limelight and decided to use this method to get the attention of Ghanaians, and lo and behold he's got everyone talking about him.
In 2010 it was reported that this same Dr Fordjour wanted to scam some rural banks in the name of giving them awards. It is believed Dr Fordjour is a professional con artist who has been on this mission decades ago
Below Is the full list of awardees
