Kue: Gateway to Tem Kotokoli’s Heritage (Know your Home town)

Kue is the cherished hometown of the Tem Kotokoli people. This community is situated in the Oti Region, specifically within the Nkwanta South Municipality, offering a blend of cultural heritage and natural beauty.

Getting to Kue.

Whether you’re journeying to Kue from afar or nearby, the adventure begins with your mode of transport.

For Commercial Bus Travelers:

Initiate your journey from Accra to Kue by heading to  Nkwanta bus station located in various places like Rawlings Park, Madina, Ashaiman, or the Agbogbloshie yam market. Secure your ticket to Nkwanta, the capital of Nkwanta South municipal. This leg of the trip typically takes around 10 hours, though travel times may vary with traffic conditions.

 

For Travelers from the three Northern Regions:

Your journey starts at Tamale, the Bimbilla bus station, leading to the town of Bimbilla in Nanumba North. Transitioning from Bimbilla to either Kpassa or Nkwanta can be challenging, so plan to catch a ride to Damanko, then proceed to Kpassa — the capital of Nkwanta North District. From Kpassa, a subsequent ride brings you to Nkwanta. This entire journey is achievable within a day. Those from Savana region may channel their journey through Salaga to Bimbilla as well.
