New Juaben South Municipal Assembly is one of the thirty-three districts in Eastern Region, Ghana.[2] Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger New Juaben Municipal District in 1988 until the northern part of the district was split off to create New Juaben North Municipal Assembly on 15 March 2018; thus the remaining part has been renamed as New Juaben South Municipal Assembly. The municipality is located in the central part of the Eastern Region and has Koforidua as its capital town.[3] [4]

The New Juaben South Municipal District shares boundaries with the following Assemblies: New Juaben North Municipal Assembly to the North, Akuapim North Municipal Assembly to the South East, and Yilo Krobo Municipal Assembly to the East.[5]
