Western Region » Sekondi Takoradi Metropolitan


Hon. Kobina Pra Annan Sekondi Takoradi Metropolitan Chief Exec.	Presiding Member

The Sekondi Takoradi Metropolitan Area, with Sekondi as the administrative capital, occupies the south-eastern part of Western Region. It shares boundaries with Ahanta West, Mpohor Wassa East and Komenda-Edina-Eguafo-Abrem Municipal. It is located on the coast, about 200km west of Accra.

This makes it the smallest, but easily the most highly developed of the 13 districts of the Western Region. Indeed, it is the third largest metropolis in the whole of Ghana. Close to Takoradi Polytechnic, the Konsaworado flows towards the Buthia lagoon, creating an extensive, beautiful marshland. The Essei lagoon lies between Ekuase and Takoradi.
