The Anloga assembly was carved out of the Keta municipality after several requests from stakeholders including the Awoamefia of Anlo, Torgbui Sri III who argued that, the municipality has become too large for effective administration, as it was the only assembly with two large constituencies; (i.e. Keta and Anlo) in the region.
On Tuesday, February 19, 2019, the Volta Regional Minister, Dr. Archibald Letsa inaugurated the Anloga District Assembly on behalf of the president under Legislative Instrument (LI) 2372 of 2018.
