Aboabo
Aboabo is a suburb of Tamale, Ghana, the capital of the Northern Region of Ghana.
Aboabo is located within the Tamale Metropolis, bordered by neighborhoods including Zogbeli, Saabonjida, and Poloyafong. Aboabo and Poloyafong share the same electoral area and are often considered a single community, although residential distinctions have led to their being viewed separately.
The suburb contains the Aboabo Forest Reserve.
Aboabo hosts the Aboabo Market, where a variety of products are traded, especially local food.
Aboabo faces social challenges, including congestion, where major streets in the Central Business District, including those around Aboabo, have experienced severe congestion due to hawkers, beggars, and loitering individuals, complicating pedestrian and vehicular movement. Drug abuse is also a prevalent issue in Aboabo, particularly in the forest reserve and marketplaces. In response, a voluntary anti-drug taskforce, which aims to seize illegal drugs, has been established. This initiative is supported by Aboabo youth.
The taskforce was featured on a BBC documentary that exposed an Indian pharma firm fueling opioid crisis in Africa.
In 2024, the Finance Minister of Ghana launched a 1.5 million GH₵ educational fund in the area to support students from the Aboabo and Zogbeli communities in accessing tertiary education.
