Regions of Ghana

Ghana is a country of many firsts: the first to win a medal in the Olympics for football, first to be a sub- saharan country, and first to use seashells as money. Ghana is a West African country that boarders the Gulf of Guinea, Cote d’ Ivoire, and Togo. It’s comparable to the U.S state, Oregon at 92,100 square miles. Ghana, the richest country in West Africa, once used sea shells as money. Ghana geographically is on the west coast located directly between Senegal and Cameroon. Ghana’s climate is

Hypothesis While ethnicity is not mono-causal to determining voting behaviour, the focus of this study is the consistency of ethnicity as a key determinant of voting behaviour in Ghana, particularly, in the Volta and Ashanti Regions. This dissertation posits that ethnicity is a consistent key determinant of voting behaviour in Ghana, and this is because ethnicity is enshrined within the political arrangements of the country (Oelbaum, 2007, pp. 242-273).

pattern for all the three regions. The highest rainfall values of 1580mm (NR), 1365mm (UER) and 1543mm (UWR) were recorded in 1991, 1999 and 1963, respectively. The lowest rainfall values of 695mm (NR), 671mm (UER) and 524mm (UWR) were recorded in 1992, 1977 and 1986, respectively. The mean annual rainfall values were 1082.5mm (NR), 990.8mm (UER) and 1035.4mm (UWR) as shown in table II. In spite of the seemingly high rainfall amount recorded in NR over the period, the region showed the highest variability

(2012) study of the ten regions of Ghana using different indicators which showed the three regions in northern Ghana as most vulnerable to drought. With limited livelihood diversification in the regions, many rural household have embraced migration as an adaptive strategy to cope with the impact of harsh climatic conditions such as drought and floods.
