Sawla-Tuna-Kalba District is one of the seven districts in Savannah Region, Ghana. [2] Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Bole District in 1988, until the northern part of the district was split off by a decree of president John Agyekum Kufuor on 27 August 2004 to create Sawla-Tuna-Kalba District; thus the remaining part has been retained as Bole District . The district assembly is located in the western part of Savannah Region and has Sawla as its capital town.
