Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Out of all the notable individuals, alleged philanthropist and scholar, Dr. UN handed his ‘phony’ honors to, it seems he enjoys making fun of rapper Sarkodie the most.
Dr. UN, actual name Kwame Owusu Fordjour, stated in a recent interview with AJ Poundz on Onua FM’s Adwuma Adwuma mid-morning show that the award he handed to Sarkodie had strengthened his brand and given him an international appeal.
He’s heard saying;
“Earlier, Sark was only known to the Ghanaians community abroad. For example, initially, when he travels to New York, he was known by just the Ghanaian community there. When my award made it into international headlines, for example, BBC and CNN, that was the deal breaker for him,” he explained.
You know, the UN issued a disclaimer via international media saying Dr Kwame Fordjour doesn’t have any affiliation with them. It elevated you. So, if you want to brand yourself, you start from there.
Every award scheme is limited to the local community, but my initiative was way bigger. Now people in high positions, like pastors and high commissioners, know Sarkodie,” he asserted.
He also revealed that the citation he presented was particularly written with assistance from high commissioners, embassies, and diplomats.
“So Sarkodie shouldn’t have listened to the masses. Now the world knows Sarkodie, so my award isn’t fake,” he concluded.
