Dr. UN’s award is more credible than the vote-buying useless VGMA — Blakk Rasta

 


Popular entertainment journalist, Abubakar Ahmed, popularly known as Blakk Rasta, has said Dr. Kwame Forduor aka Dr UN-sponsored awards is more authentic than the Vodafone Ghana Music Awards (VGMA). 

Having compared how winners are being chosen between the two awards, he said the VGMA’s do not produce credible winners. Speaking on his show, he explained that the VGMA awards are now reserved for the highest bidder to an extent where deserving winners are being denied what is truly theirs. 

But with Dr. UN’s award, he explained that he didn't take money from anyone but rather selected the deserving winners for the award by himself. 

“His awards will even be better than the VGMA which is a useless award. This VGMA is a useless award because people are voting. They are buying votes and that is corrupt… Dr UN was asked why he didn’t nominate me and he said Blakk Rasta was bigger than my awards…the point is this when VGMA is making their awards, you have to vote. When you vote, they give it to the highest bidder, the one who votes more. 

“They are not even ashamed of it, they will ask you, ‘did you vote?’. You didn’t win and you are crying. So did you buy the awards? Dr UN didn’t do that, he just pinpointed people in the society he felt with his panellist that these people deserved this award and they awarded them, that is how an award system should go…I will prefer Dr UN’s award to VGMA any day,” Blakk Rasta argued. 

Following the "fake" 7th edition of the UN Global Leadership Service to Humanity Awards on August 28, 2020, the aftermath of that date became a hot topic. 

Celebrities and media personalities such as Sarkodie, Nathaniel Attoh, Serwaa Amihere, Berla Mundi, Johnnie Hughes, and others were allegedly scammed. 

They were given various objects including water bottles that were said to have different meanings as an award.
