Ga District is a former district that was located in Greater Accra Region, Ghana.[1] Originally created as an ordinary district assembly in 1988. However in 2004, it was split off into two new districts: Ga West District (which it was elevated to municipal district assembly status on 29 February 2008; capital: Amasaman) and Ga East District (which it was also elevated to municipal district assembly status on 29 February 2008; capital: Abokobi). The district assembly was located in the western part of Greater Accra Region and had Amasaman as its capital town.
