• Some social media users have commented on event planner Dr UN's video which is trending on X

Self-acclaimed Ghanaian event planner Kwame Fordjour, known as Dr. UN, attempted to present a customised award to Dr. Frank Amoakohene, the Ashanti Regional Minister onn April 20, 2025, during the AshantiFest event.

In footage circulating on social media, Dr. UN can be seen holding a plaque featuring images of the minister.

However, Dr. Frank Amoakohene chose not to accept the award directly, asking Dr. UN to pass it to a member of his team instead.

This incident continues to place Dr. UN in the public eye, as it is not the first time he has been involved in the presentation of awards to notable individuals.

In 2020, he organised the “7th Global Leadership Service to Humanity Awards,” which attracted significant media attention.

The ceremony included the distribution of plaques named "UN Kofi Annan Excellence Awards" to various personalities in entertainment, politics, and business, such as rapper Sarkodie and media figure Berla Mundi.

However, it was later disclosed that Dr. UN had no official connection to the United Nations or the late Kofi Annan, leading to public scrutiny and discussions about the legitimacy of the awards.
