A vibrant constituency in the Volta Region of Ghana, comprising four distinct zones — each with its own communities, culture, and development story under the leadership of Hon. Eric Edem Agbana.
Ketu North Constituency is located in the Volta Region of Ghana and is home to a proud and industrious people. The constituency stretches across fertile lands bordering Togo and the Volta estuary, encompassing a rich tapestry of communities with deep cultural roots and a strong spirit of collective progress.
Under the leadership of Hon. Eric Edem Agbana, Ketu North is experiencing targeted development across its four zones — with investment in education, healthcare, road infrastructure, electrification, and youth empowerment touching communities large and small throughout the constituency.
The northern heartland of Ketu North — a vibrant commercial and agricultural hub
Dzodze is one of the most populous and commercially active zones in Ketu North. Situated in the northern part of the constituency, it serves as a key trading and administrative hub. The Dzodze market draws buyers and sellers from across the district and beyond, making it a vital economic engine for the entire constituency.
The zone is home to a large youth population, and Hon. Agbana has prioritised education infrastructure, vocational training, and youth employment initiatives here. The Ketu North Scholar Program has seen strong uptake from Dzodze, with multiple beneficiaries attending public universities across Ghana.
A lush agricultural zone with deep cultural roots and growing community infrastructure
Penyi Zone is characterised by its rich agricultural land and a strong community spirit. The zone spans fertile terrain ideal for farming — particularly cassava, maize, and vegetables — making it a major contributor to the food economy of Ketu North. Fishing communities along the Volta estuary also form a significant part of Penyi's economic identity.
Hon. Agbana has directed targeted investment into agricultural support, road connectivity between farming communities, and basic social amenities including water and sanitation. Penyi communities have also benefited from electrification extension projects and school improvement programmes.
Home to one of Ghana's most important rice-producing regions and a growing agribusiness economy
Afife is one of the most strategically significant zones in Ketu North, largely due to the historic Afife Rice Irrigation Project — one of Ghana's landmark agricultural investments that has transformed the zone into a major rice-producing area. The zone's economy is predominantly agrarian, with rice, cotton, and vegetable farming as key activities.
The zone has enormous untapped economic potential, and Hon. Agbana is working to revitalise irrigation systems, connect farmers to markets, and attract agribusiness investment that creates jobs for local youth. Afife also has strong tourism potential given its coastal proximity and scenic landscapes.
A resilient border zone with vibrant cross-border trade and a strong sense of community identity
Weta Zone sits along the border with Togo, making it a dynamic cross-border trade zone with a unique economic character. The communities of Weta benefit from the movement of goods between Ghana and Togo, creating livelihoods for traders, transporters, and small business owners across the zone.
Despite its potential, Weta has historically faced challenges in accessing basic services due to its border location. Hon. Agbana has prioritised closing the development gap in Weta — pushing for road connectivity, water access, health facilities, and ensuring students from Weta receive equal access to scholarship opportunities and education support.
Whether you want to apply for a scholarship, book the MP for a community visit, or reach out with a concern — Hon. Agbana's office is always open to the people of Ketu North.
