Rt. Rev'd Abraham Kobina Ackah
Bishop of WiawsoThe Diocese of Wiawso was carved out from the Diocese of Sekondi of the Western Region. The Diocese was inaugurated on Saturday, 18th February, 2006 and the Consecration and Enthronement of the first Bishop of the Diocese in the person of the Rt. Rev. Abraham K. Ackah took place on the 10th and 11th June, 2006 respectively. The carving out of Wiawso Diocese was the vision of the first Bishop of Sekondi Rt. Rev. T. S. A. Annobil during a Synod which was held in 1991. He informed Synod even at that time that the work load in the Diocese was too much for a single Bishop to manage. He thus paved the way for the carving out of Wiawso from that vast area of his jurisdiction.
