A District Court has made an order from the Asokore Mampong by Her Worship, Portia Molly Sally, that a medical examination be conducted on the self-acclaimed Global Ambassador for the United Nations (UN).

The fake awards organiser called Kwame Fordjour but popularly known as Dr UN has been ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation.

This is coming after he was arrested on 16th October 2020 in Kumasi at the premises of Hello-FM by National Security operatives because of the fake award ceremony he organized in Kumasi.

Reports suggest that he had been in the crosshairs of the security agencies for quite some time now, after a fake award ceremony he organized in Kumasi, Ashanti Region in 2018.

Dr Un had previously been arrested that year and was later granted bail but the court subsequently issued his arrest warrant this year for flouting his bail conditions. It is for the hearing of his second arrest that the court is calling for a medical examination to be run on him.

This comes after multiple personalities had called for his arrest.

Ghanaian actress, Lydia Forson, was the major player in the call. She stated that should be punished for pulling a scam on Ghanaian politicians and other A-list celebs in his fake Global Humanitarian UN Award which was held on August 28, 2020, instead of the adjulation he currently is receiving.

"So it’s not funny anymore. Why is this DR-UN being given platforms and hailed as some kind of hero, even if it’s just for laughs? Do we understand the dangerous precedence we’re setting by enabling this type of behaviour?"

"Soon you’ll come and write epistles about poorly behaved children on here when there doesn’t seem to be any repercussions for poorly behaved adults."

"Was it funny in the moment, yes and even I’m guilty of indulging, but you will do ah he will get his own tv show?" She wrote on her social media page, Facebook.

The actress expressed her displeasure after it was reported that Dr UN was being hailed as a celebrity by different Ghanaians to the point where he was mobbed after he stepped out to some commercial locations in Accra.

Now, since he has to undergo a fair trial, his mental health has to be evaluated. In relation to this, the mental fitness of an accused person is a prerequisite to a fair trial and that Dr UN needs to have the mental capacity to understand and appreciate court proceedings.

The self acclaim ‘diplomat’ and ‘global ambassador recently accomplished a scammed the likes of Sarkodie, Berla Mundi, D Black, Nathaniel Attoh, Professor Ebenezer Oduro, VC of University of Ghana among other top Ghanaian personalities with his awards.

Following his recent arrest, the court has now granted him bail at the amount of GH¢ 15, 000 with two sureties to be justified
