In line with the 1992 constitution the District has four sub-structures which are all functional namely: I. Juapong Town Council II. area council III. Mepe Area Council IV. Dusor Area Council LOCATION AND SIZE The North Tongu District is located along the Volta River and has majority of its communities interspersed along the River. The District has a total land size of about 1,131.64sqkm representing 6 percent of total land area of the Volta region. The District has a vast arable land available for agricultural development. The District lays within latitudes 5047’N to 60N and longitude 005’ E to 0045’E and shares boundaries with to the East, Asuogyaman and Lower Manya to the West, to the South is Shai Osudoku and Ningo Prampram and Ho municipal to the North.

POPULATION STRUCTURE The 2018 Projected Population of the District currently stands at 106,957 at a growth rate of 2.21 percent of which 52,577are males representing 47.3 percent with females constituting 54,380 representing 52.7 percent. The population density is estimated at 109.5 persons per square kilometre as compared to the regional and national population densities of 103.0 and 103.4 persons per square kilometre respectively. Out of the total population sixty (60) percent lived in the rural areas

4 | P a g e

The District age dependency ratio stood at 79.5 dependents (children and old age) for every 100- people working. For males in the District, there are 81.9 people in the dependent age groups for every 100 persons in the working ages whereas for females, there are 77.5 persons in the dependent age group for every 100 persons in the working ages. The sex ratio for the district is 89.9 which means that there approximately 90 males to every 100 females.

PHYSICAL AND NATURAL ENVIRONMENT The main water body watering the North Tongu District is the Volta River. The District is also drained by the Alabo, Kolo, Aklakpa, Gblor, Bla (Bla-Battor), Anyorgborti (Aveyime) and Nyifla streams and their numerous tributaries into the Volta River, which runs North – South through the District. Temperature and relative humidity vary little throughout the year. The mean temperature is 27º C and the maximum and minimum vary from 22º C to 33º C respectively.

The climate of the District is Tropical, greatly influenced by the South – West Monsoons from the South Atlantic and the dry Harmattan winds from the Sahara. There are two rainy seasons, the major one from mid – April to early July and the minor from September to November. The average annual rainfall varies from 900mm to 1100mm with more than 50 per cent of it falling in the major season.

The District lies within the tropical savannah grassland zone. The vegetation is dense along the Volta River and along the stream basins. The topography of the North Tongu District is gentle, ranging from near sea level to about 18 meters (60 feet) above sea level, with slopes less than 5 per cent. There are dominantly medium to moderately coarse textured alluvial soils along the Volta River.

DISTRICT ECONOMY Agriculture Agriculture, the leading sector in the economy is dominated by small scale unorganized farmers who depend mainly on simple rudimentary tools and labour-intensive techniques of production. Given a large pool of youthful population, coupled with available land and water; there exists opportunities for potential agricultural sector investors to invest in farming in the district as well as develop out-grower schemes for local farmers to produce raw materials to serve as inputs to attract large scale agro-processing industries. Produce from the subsistence farmers includes cassava, maize, mangoes, vegetables, rice, groundnuts and cowpea. There are currently some

5 | P a g e notable commercial agricultural investments in the District like the Praire Volta Limited, Musahamat Farms and Vegpro among others.

Livestock in the District is estimated to be at 197,507 with 6,789 keepers. The major constraint to the production of ruminant live stock in the district is the scarcity and fluctuating of quality forage supply all year round especially in the dry season.

River fishing mostly in the Volta River has declined considerably due to the formation of the Volta Lake. The principal traditional fishing communities (Mepe, Battor, Aveyime and Volo), which are close to the Volta, have had their economic base eroded. It is important to note aquaculture is becoming increasing popular in the district using the cage techniques in the river because of the presence of the Volta river and other ponds and creeks in the district.

Industry The main commercial functional industrial activities are textile, agro-processing and Oyster Shell Mining

Textile: Volta Star Textile factory in Juapong is one of the largest industries in the District who are into the production of textiles. The Juapong Textiles Limited, now Volta Star Textiles Ltd was established as a public-private partnership in 1968 to produce grey aft, but folded up following the filing for liquidation by the Dutch giant Briscoe, that was operating it. The refurbished factory is being operated as a joint partnership between the Government and U-Rich Limited, a Chinese textiles and garments giant. Currently, and it is employing 185 people including five management staff from China and at full capacity, the personnel would number 800. The factory is intended to serve as a market for locally grown cotton and accelerate the economic development of the district and the adjoining ones and help to resuscitate the nation’s textile industry.

Agro Processing: Gari processing is done by women using various traditional methods mainly in the Juapong area of the district. The technology and equipment used are indigenous. The main weakness of the traditional processing however is the low labour productivity and product quality. In some parts of the District, lime production using oyster shells is undertaken by some of the local people for export to Togo for cement production and shea butter processing

SOCIAL SERVICES Education The North Tongu District has a total of 201 educational facilities consisting of Pre-Schools, Primary, Junior High, Secondary and a School for Children with special needs. The breakdown is as follows: Pre-schools 101 (Public 71 and Private 30), Primary 100 (Public 70 Private 30) Junior High 61 (Public 42 and Private 19), 6 Senior High (Public 5 and Private 1); and 1 Special School for persons with disabilities. These schools have a total enrolment of 28,425.

Health Again, there are a total of 23 health facilities spread across the district. There are 6 Health centres, 5 CHPS Compounds 9 CHPS Zones, and 1 Polyclinic all under the Management of Ghana Health Services (Public); and 2 privates, Battor Catholic Mission Hospital and Merciful Hospital.

TOURISM POTENTIALS Tourism and Recreation Though the district abounds in tourism potential, especially in the areas of leisure tourism and eco- tourism for those who want to be closer to nature, most of these potentials are still undeveloped. The potential includes quite a lengthy stretch of the Volta River with relatively steep banks suitable for the location of lakeside motels and hotels.

In addition, Agbadza, Atokoe, Awuna and Gadzo traditional dance forms exist in the district, which visitors (or tourists) could be treated to. Even more attractive is the fact that some of these dance forms are performed by all-women groups. Most of these tourist attractions are still in their raw state and require some amount of development. It should be added that specific areas under tourism, for example, the Dorfor and Volo Kome area, have access roads leading to the tourist sites, electricity supply and the construction of rest and relaxation spots at the various tourist sites, hotels and conference centres is ongoing. Battor, the district capital, is located within a very natural environment over- looking the Volta River and free from the hustle and bustle of city life, is an ideal place for anyone who wants a change of environment.

SURFACE ACCESSIBILITY Majority of the roads in the North Tongu District are untarred and highly unmotorable making accessibility to some areas difficult. Due to the nature of the land, graded roads do not take a lot of time before going bad again. This has made the movement of goods and services from the hinterlands to the major market centres difficult. The only tarred road in the District is the Mepe - and an on-going bitumen surfacing of Juapong to Adidome road.

Water transportation is also one of the means of transport used in the North Tongu District. It provides the easiest and shortest access to other parts of the district as the Volta River virtually divides the district into two. It is therefore imperative to develop the system of water transportation in the District in order to make it safer for the users as outboard motors are used for the transportation.

Budget Sub-Programme Description

The programme will require the collaboration with the District Administration, the area councils, assembly members, the chiefs and all legible tax payers to be successful. Operational tools such as revenue pick up, motor bikes, bicycles, value books, computers and mobile phones to carry out the programmes. The revenue staffs need to be trained in innovative methods of revenue collection coupled with support of modern tools to make them productive. Accounts and Audit staff has to be trained in new Public Financial Management Regulation to enable them operate by the statutory standards. Finance Department, Revenue Unit and Audit Unit will collaborate to carry out the programmes for the period through the support of IGF and Transfers.

22 | P a g e

The programme will benefit the provide funds for the administration of the District Assembly, ensure value for money for projects in the district, and make businesses to have the legal backing to operate freely through the taxes they pay. Other beneficiaries will be existing and prospective staff of the district whose salaries processing will be vetted promptly. The programmes will be carried out by a team of 29 staff composed of 22 revenue staff, 5 accounts staff and 2 audit staff. We hope the revenue pick up, motor bikes, bicycles, computers, mobile phones, stationery and value books are provided on time to all staff at the District Administration, Area Councils and other operational units. The training is also critical to provide capacity of staff to be productive. Above all, at least a quarterly monitoring and evaluation will be necessary to guide our programmes. Also, prompt payment of salaries and SSNIT of staff on IGF is a major challenge.

Community members becoming low level awareness of various types of Disasters and their potential hazards that would generate into loss of lives and property damage should there be any eventuality. The District covers the vast land of areas and across the Volta River and other streams and it is very difficult for officers to reach out to every community on time. There is the need for a pick up to enable the Department undertake its work efficiently. Zonal officers have a difficulty in reaching out to most of the Zones. There is the need to make them mobile by providing them with motorcycles for their activities.
