Ningo Prampram District is one of the twenty-nine districts in Greater Accra Region, Ghana. ^[2] Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Dangme West District in 1988, which was created from the former Dangme District Council, until the southern part of the district was split off to create Ningo-Prampram District on 28 June 2012; thus the remaining part has been renamed as Shai-Osudoku District. The district assembly is located in the eastern part of Greater Accra Region and has Prampram as its capital town.

In November 2024, the Ningo Prampram District was elevated from district status to a municipal assembly, the Ningo Prampram Municipal Assembly.
