Saboba-Chereponi District is a former district that was located in Northern Region, Ghana.[1] Originally created as an ordinary district assembly in 1988, which was created from the former East Dagomba District Council. However on 29 February 2008, it was split off into two new districts: Saboba District (which remains as part of Northern Region; capital: Saboba) and Chereponi District (which is currently part of North East Region; capital: Chereponi). The district assembly was located in the northeast part of Eastern Region and had Saboba as its capital town.
