Asunafo South District

Asunafo South District is one of the six districts in Ahafo Region, Ghana. It was formerly part of the then-larger and original Asunafo District in 1988, until part of the district was split off by a decree of president John Agyekum Kufuor on 12 November 2003 to create Asunafo South District; thus the original remaining part was renamed as Asunafo North District. The district assembly is located in the western part of Ahafo Region and has Kukuom as its capital town.
