The Patriotic Trobu Youth Alliance has raised concerns over what it describes as a misrepresentation of the academic credentials of their Member of Parliament, Hon. Gloria Owusu, on the official Parliament of Ghana website.
In a statement signed by the group’s convenor, Samuel Anim, the alliance called on Parliament to rectify the inaccuracies, stressing the importance of accurate and factual records in upholding transparency and integrity in governance.
According to the group, the parliamentary website incorrectly lists Hon. Gloria Owusu’s qualification as a diploma in evangelism, which contradicts her actual credentials.
They assert that she holds a degree in Human Resource Management from the University of Ghana, Legon—a fact she personally confirmed during a live broadcast interview on Asempa FM’s Community Watch program on Friday, May 3, 2024.
The group referenced the interview, which can be accessed via the link https://youtu.be/8KRiPR4JQL4, as evidence to substantiate their claims.
The Patriotic Trobu Youth Alliance argues that such an error, if not corrected, could have far-reaching implications, including:
- Misleading the public about the qualifications of their elected representative.
- Tarnishing the reputation of Hon. Gloria Owusu.
- Bringing unnecessary scrutiny to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the Trobu constituency.
They maintain that parliamentary records must reflect the truth, as any inaccuracies undermine the credibility of both individual MPs and the institution of Parliament itself.
The youth alliance is, therefore, making a strong appeal to Parliament to immediately amend the records and ensure that Hon. Gloria Owusu’s academic qualifications are accurately represented.
For easy reference, they provided the official parliamentary website link where the misrepresentation appears:

Additionally, they attached the video from Asempa FM’s May 3, 2024 program to further support their appeal.
The group expressed confidence that Parliament, as the highest legislative body, will address the matter swiftly in the spirit of fairness, truth, and justice. They urged the responsible authorities to take immediate steps to correct the record and prevent any further misinformation regarding their MP’s academic background.
