Effutu Municipal District is one of the twenty-two districts in the Central Region, Ghana. Originally, it was formerly part of the then-larger Awutu/Effutu/Senya District in 1988, until the southwest part of the district was split off by a decree of President John Agyekum Kufuor on 29 February 2008.
The degree created Awutu Senya District; thus, the remaining part was elevated to a municipal district assembly status to become Effutu Municipal District in the same year. The municipality is located in the southeast part of the Central Region and has Winneba as its capital town.
