Effiakuma is a residential town in the Western region of Ghana. It is about 10 kilometres from Takoradi, the regional capital. It was built in the early 1960s by the then-president of Kwame Nkrumah. There are about three general plans for the buildings in the town. The State Housing Corporation built the houses. Effiakuma is the forty-seventh most populous town in Ghana, with a population of 35,094 people.[1] On the outskirts of the town is the Effiakuma Zongo.
