The Bono East region of Ghana is a new region carved out of the Brong Ahafo region. The capital of the new region is Techiman.[3][4] This creation of this new region was in fulfillment of a promise made by the New Patriotic Party prior to the 2016 Ghana general election. Upon winning the elections, the President, Nana Akuffo Addo created the Ministry of Regional Reorganization to oversee policy formulation and implementation. In all six new regions are to be created from the existing ten regions of Ghana. The other regions are Bono, Western North, Ahafo, Savannah, North East, and Oti regions.[5]
The execution of plans for the creation of the regions was seeded to the newly created Ministry of Regional Reorganization and Development[6] which is under the leadership of Hon. Dan Botwe. Government of Ghana ministry charged with the responsibility of supervising the creation of new regions in Ghana.[6] In March 2017, the ministry sent the blue print for the creation of the region along with others to the Council of State. The council met over 36 times from the time of submission to August 2017.[7] The final stage for the creation of the region was decided through a referendum by the people within the catchment of the new region on 27 December 2018.[8][9]
