Yendi Municipal District
Yendi Municipal District is one of the sixteen districts in Northern Region, Ghana.

However, on 28 June 2012, the western part of the district was later split to create Mion District with the remaining part retained as Yendi Municipal District. The municipality is located in the central part of Northern Region and has Yendi as its capital town.
