Ablekuma West Municipal District is one of the twenty-nine districts in Greater Accra Region, Ghana.[1][2][3][4] Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Accra Metropolitan District in 1988, until a small portion of the district was split off to create Ablekuma West Municipal District on 15 March 2018; thus the remaining part has been retained as Accra Metropolitan District. The municipality is located in the central part of Greater Accra Region and has Dansoman as its capital town.
