Krachi West District

Krachi West District is one of the eight districts in Oti Region, Ghana.[1] Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Krachi District on 1988, until a small portion of the district was split off to become Krachi East District on 4 August 2004, which was established by Legislative Instrument (L.I.) 1747; thus the remaining original part was renamed to become Krachi West District. Later, part of the district was split off to become Krachi Nchumuru District. The district assembly is located in the northern part of Oti Region and has Kete Krachi as its capital town.
