Nzema District is a former district council that was located in Western Region, Ghana. It was originally created as a district council in 1975. However, in 1988, it was split off into two new district assemblies: Jomoro District[1] (capital: Half Assini) and Nzema East District (capital: Axim). The district council was located in the southern part of Western Region and had Half Assini as its capital town.
