Ablekuma Central Municipal Assembly
Municipal District in Ghana
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ablekuma Central Municipal Assembly is one of the twenty-nine districts in Greater Accra Region, Ghana.[2][3][4][5] Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Accra Metropolitan District in 1988, until a small portion of the district was split off to create Ablekuma Central Municipal District on 19 February 2019; thus the remaining part has been retained as Accra Metropolitan District. The municipality is located in the central part of Greater Accra Region and has Lartebiokorshie as its capital town.
