Kintampo South District is one of the eleven districts in Bono East Region, Ghana. [2] [3] [4] Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Kintampo District on 10 March 1989, until the southern part of the district was split off to create Kintampo South District on 12 November 2003 (effectively 17 February 2004); thus the remaining part has been renamed as Kintampo North District ; which it was later elevated to municipal district assembly status on 1 November 2007 (effectively 29 February 2008) to become Kintampo North Municipal District . The district assembly is located in the northern part of Bono East Region and has Jema as its capital town.
