Kwahu Afram Plains South District Assembly REPUBLIC OF GHANA THE COMPOSITE BUDGET OF THE KWAHU AFRAM PLAINS SOUTH DISTRICT ASSEMBLY FOR THE 2015 FISCAL YEAR DISTRICT PROFILE ESTABLISHMENT OF KWAHU AFRAM PALINS SOUTH DISTRICT The Kwahu Afram Plains South District was carved out from the Kwahu North District and was inaugurated on 19th June, 2012. The Legislative Instrument (LI) that established the District is 2045 and was passed in 2012. The Kwahu Afram Plains South District has one constituency and one Member of Parliament with Tease as the District capital. The District is located between Latitude 6o 40I N and Latitude 70 10’1 N and Longitude 0O 40I E and Longitude 0o 10I E, at the North-Western corner of Eastern Region with a total land area of approximately 3,095 sq km. The District is bounded to the North by the Kwahu Afram Plains North, to the South by Kwahu South, Kwahu East and Fanteakwa Districts, to the East by the Volta River and to the West by two Districts in the Ashanti region precisely Sekyere East and Ashanti-Akim Districts. There are three main entrances into the District by road; namely Nkawkaw-Mpraeso-Bepong-Kwahu Tafo and Adawso from where the three kilometer wide Afram River is crossed to Ekye-Amanfrom by a ferry operated by the Volta Lake Transport Company (VLTC). The second entrance is through Agogo in the Sekyere Afram Plains in the Ashanti region where one can travel by road through Dome to Maame Krobo then to Tease, the District capital and the third is through Kpando-Torko from where the Volta Lake is crossed to Agodeke-Donkorkrom-Samanhyia- Tease the District capital. Population Size According to the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC), the Kwahu Afram Plains South District has a total population of 115,812 people. Out of this, 62,450 are males with 53,362 females. DOMINANT ECONOMIC ACTIVITY The Kwahu Afram Plains South District is a conglomeration of diverse economic fields and participants. The economy of the District is driven by agriculture due to the vast tracts of arable land coupled with good weather conditions. According to the 2010 PHC data, the economic sector employs about 80 percent of the active labour force in the District. Agriculture Agriculture in the District is made up of crop farming, animal husbandry and fishing. According to the 2010 PHC data, crop production employs about 90 percent of active labour force in the agricultural sector. Commerce takes about 5 percent, Service 4 percent and industries takes 1 percent of the active labour force The key food crops grown in the District include yam, maize, cocoyam, cassava, pepper, plantain, beans, rice and groundnuts. Cabbage and carrots are new additions to these traditional food crops. Farm acreage ranges from 1 to 30 acres for subsistence farming whilst commercial farms range from 50 to 200 acres. KWAHU AFRAM PLAINS SOUTH DISTRICT – 2015 FISCAL YEAR COMPOSITE BUDGET Page 1 Manufacturing The type of industrial activities in the District can be categorized based on their primary input or raw material and the kind of skill used in the production process. The wood industry is visible even though not very vibrant. This includes sawmilling and carpentry. These are medium and small scale production units. The industrial sector is very much dominated by informal micro agro-processing enterprises in the District’s economy. Gari processing and fish mongering are some of the main areas of employment and income generation, especially among women, within the industrial sector of the District. Small boat and canoe building enterprises also exist. Tourism Sites Tourism also seems to be a promising sector though not developed. The special rocks around Bonkro which by nature have produced a huge cave have become a sanctuary for bats which is one of the potentially promising tourist areas if developed. This could be a source of tourist attraction for the District. The District for all its numerous potentials has little to offer when it comes to tourism. Educational There are about Eighty-five (85) public schools which comprise of Sixty-three (63) pre-schools and primary, Twenty-one (21) Junior High Schools and One (1) Senior High School) and fourteen (14) private schools (made up of seven pre-schools and primary, and Seven Junior High Schools) in the district. There are about Three Hundred and fifty-four (354) trained teachers comprising of Two hundred and Eighty-two (282) males and Seventy-two (62) females. The total student enrolment as at 2013/2014 academic year is Fourteen thousand, Five Hundred and Twelve pupils made up of Seven Thousand Six Hundred and Seventy-three boys and Six Thousand, Eight Hundred and Thirty-nine girls. Currently, nineteen (19) public schools benefits from the Ghana School Feeding Programme district-wide. Health The district has no hospital but can boast of three government established health centers, eleven CHPS centers and a Presbyterian health center at Tease. The doctor & nurse patient ratio in the district currently is 21:107,637 thus, 1: 5,127. This means One Doctor/Nurse is to 5,127 patients in the district. Malaria is the topmost cause of OPD attendance to health facilities in the district. Road Networks Road network in the Kwahu Afram Plains South is a challenge to the developmental potentials of the area. The District has a total of 579.20 km of road network out of which 429.60 km are engineered and 149.60 km are unengineered. Efforts are being made by Management of the Assembly to open up the unengineered road network in the District to facilitate the transportation of people and farm produce to their various destinations in a timely manner. KWAHU AFRAM PLAINS SOUTH DISTRICT – 2015 FISCAL YEAR COMPOSITE BUDGET Page 2 Co-operative fish farming: Fishing is one of the potential areas that can offer employment opportunities for people in the Kwahu Afram Plains South in view of the vast water provided by the Afram and Volta River. The Assembly therefore encouraged the formation of co-operative fishing associations which could be supported with fish cages to increase fish rearing in the District. VISION STATEMENT To become highly focused local governance organization that creates conducive environment for citizen participation in decision making process and promote human resource development. MISSION STATEMENT Kwahu Afram Plains South District Assembly exists to develop human capacity and mobilize resources to promote higher living standards and support the overall agriculture and infrastructure development of the district.

  • Kwahu South District
    KWAHU SOUTH DISTRICT Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the Kwahu South District is one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the district report are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence- based decision-making, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programmes.

  • Well Water Quality in the Abetifi and Mpraeso Townships of the Eastern Region of Ghana
    Well Water Quality in the Abetifi and Mpraeso Townships of the Eastern Region of Ghana Andoh-Ampah, Samuel 2010 ABSTRACT The study was conducted to monitor well water quality in Abetifi and Mpraeso towns; the district capitals for Kwahu East and Kwahu South respectively. The research was conducted from December to March in the dry season when most of the residents depended on water from wells because of erratic flow of treated pipe borne water. The study involved reconnaissance surveys, physico-chemical, nutrient and chemical parameters, bacteriological assessment and social surveys. The study determined the concentration level of trace metals in well water, the microbial water quality of wells and finally established the perception of people on the impact of human activities on water bodies and the quality of water they consume from wells. Well water quality was monitored along three main dimensions, namely physico-chemical, nutrient and chemical, and microbial parameters. In all, fourteen sampling sites (seven at Mpraeso and seven at Abetifi) were considered. The various water quality parameters determined from the well water were compared to Ghana Standard GS175-1:2008 and World Health Organization WHO (1993) guideline limits. Some of the physico-chemical parameters determined such as temperature, TDS, total hardness, salinity, nitrate, sulphate, phosphate, chloride, sodium, potassium and other trace elements were generally within the WHO/GS 175 and WHO guideline limits. From the study, it was discovered that water quality parameters such as pH, turbidity, conductivity, iron, manganese and calcium exceeded GS 175 and WHO guideline limits. The pH of well water in both districts was slightly acidic.

Ed Mosby our American missionary in Accra, Ghana for coordinating the information in this directory. It is suggested that all W.B.S. teachers notify their students of the information concerning the church nearest them, so they can go to the brethren for further instruc­ tion and baptism. It is not logical to expect the local preachers to contact the thousands of students, but the people can go to the brethren all over Ghana. The preachers in Ghana who were contacted were in accord with this plan and will give full cooperation. TIMES OF SERVICES: Most congregations in Ghana meet at 9:00 a.m.
