At the awards, 'Dr' Fordjour gave out plaques which had “UN Kofi Annan Excellence Awards” inscribed on them in a bid to draw a link between the scheme, the UN, and the late Kofi Annan.

But days later, it has turned out that the organiser of the awards is a shady character who has no connections with the United Nations or Kofi Annan.

Award-winning rapper Sarkodie, Berla Mundi, D-Black, and over 20 other prominent Ghanaians received awards from the Fordjour

Apparently, Fordjour, now known on social media as 'Dr UN', contacted her in a bid to give her an award.

Narrating her encounter, McBrown disclosed that she got an e-mail from Fordjour concerning the awards.
