At his memorial service on June 14, 2008, a woman who was not his mother, Madam Victoria Cosmos Gonsalves, who comes from Atsiavi in the Volta region claimed that Kwame was her son. This woman, Miss Koffie, from Cape Coast, made a scene outside the church, saying Kwame was her child.Modern Ghana : WHO IS KWAME OWUSU ANSAH'S REAL MOTHER? by Eugene Osafo-Nkansah (Jun 25, 2008)  She told a radio station she had proof that Kwame was her son. When asked how she knew Kwame’s father, Miss Koffie said they met at Burma Camp because they both lived there—she was in a brigade, and Kwame’s father was in the military. A week after Kwame was buried, on June 28, 2008, his family held a press conference and said that the woman's claims were not true.
