Teteman is a village in the Jasikan District of the Oti Region of Ghana. Teteman is located on the eastern border of Ghana on a mountain range that separates Ghana from the Republic of Togo.[1]
Teteman is an ancient settlement at an altitude of 1105 feet. The mountain range has a forest reserve which gives Teteman a serene and tranquil feel. Although Teteman is somewhat isolated from the outside world, the village has many of the amenities of a modern-day settlement.
The village has street lighting and a pressurized water pump. This prevents inhabitants from having to go down into the valley for water and carry it back up almost 1,000 feet.
