Chereponi District is one of the six districts in North East Region, Ghana.[2] Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Saboba-Chereponi District in 1988, which was created from the former East Dagomba District Council, until the northern portion of the district was split off to become Chereponi District on 29 February 2008; thus the remaining part has been renamed as Saboba District (which is currently part of Northern Region).[3] The district assembly is located in the southeast part of North East Region and has Chereponi as its capital town.

The chereponi district is recently facing a challenge on their only sources and main road to Yendi which is making it difficult for them to transport themselves and their farm products to the towns for supply We will like to put it to the general board especially the politicians to look for solutions to that which will help both the district and the country at large
