Jaman South Municipal is one of the twelve (12) municipal assemblies and districts in Bono Region, Ghana. Originally known as Jaman District on March 10, 1989, after being created from the former Berekum-Jaman District within the then-larger Brong-Ahafo Region. Later on, part of the district was split off to create Jaman North District on November 12, 2003; thus the remaining original part became Jaman South District. It was later upgraded to municipal status in November 2017, and renamed as Jaman South Municipal. The municipality is located in the western part of Bono Region and has Drobo as its capital town.

The Municipal has a total land area of about 700 km2 and about 130 settlements most of which are rural communities and have a population less than 400. It has a total land area of 1500 km2.
