Okere District
Okere District is one of the thirty-three districts in Eastern Region, Ghana. Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Akuapim North District in 1988, which was created from the former Akuapim District Council, until it was elevated to municipal district assembly status on 15 March 2012 to become Akuapim North Municipal District.
However, on 15 March 2018, the northeast part of the district was split off to create Okere District; the remaining part was retained as Akuapim North Municipal District when the Legislative Instrument (L.I) 2342 in 2017 in pursuance to the Government's Decentralization Policy and Local Government Reform Policy was implemented to split off Okere District from Akuapim North Municipal District. The municipality is located in the southeast part of Eastern Region of the Republic of Ghana, and has Adukrom as its capital town.
The most common language spoken here is Gwan.
