Nsawkaw
Nsawkaw is a town and is the capital of Tain district of the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana.
The hometown of the native people of Nsoko was Hani Begho. It has a population of about 6000.
History teaches that the people of Nsoko emerged from a hole and first settled at Hani. Tradition further recalls that during their stay at Hani, a self-styled creator came with his mother called ASO to stay with them. Sooner than later, the mother died and when he was informed about the death, he exclaimed “Asoko”, meaning ASO is gone, and eventually became Nsoko which has been Anglicized Nsawkaw.
