Abokobi is the capital of the Ga East Municipal District of the Greater Accra Region of Ghana.Abokobi in the hinterland of Accra was founded in 1854 by missionaries of the "Basler Missionsgesellschaft" (Basel Mission) for Christian refugees, who had left Osu (the former Danish-Accra, around Christiansborg) after the British colonial government had bombarded Osu from the Sea in response to the refusal of the inhabitants to pay the newly introduced head tax.
