Kwame Owusu Fordjour, alias Dr. UN, insists that he was ever a student at the elite Harvard University despite years of widespread skepticism about his purported enrollment.
Dr. UN revealed that he attended the university between 2006 and 2010 to complete a PhD program in an interview with Oman Media.
“I went to Harvard in 2006 and graduated in 2010. I took a PhD course in Global Studies; talk about the United Nations, international organization’s, international law, human rights and others,” he said.
He also revealed that Mark Zuckerberg, the creator of the social networking site Facebook, was his Harvard classmate in 2010.
“Even the founder of Facebook is my year mate in Harvard in 2010,” he said.
Dr. UN is well-known for planning an award ceremony in 2020 that many have labeled as a hoax scheme.
Many people have questioned the organizer of the award program, which attempted to honor various important figures in Ghana, about his educational background.
But in a recent interview with GhanaWeb, artist and radio host Blakk Rasta backed up Dr. UN’s assertion that he was a former KNUST student.
Blakk Rasta claims that between 1997 and 2001, while pursuing a degree at the university, Dr. UN was his soul mate.
