Ménaka (Bambara: ߡߋߣߊߞߊ ߘߌߣߋߖߊ tr. Menaka Dineja) is a region of Mali legislatively created in 2012 from the cercle of the same name previously part of Gao Region.[3][4] Actual implementation of the region began on 19 January 2016 with the appointment of Daouda Maïga as the region's governor.[5][6] Members of the region's transitional council were appointed on 14 October 2016.[7] The region is divided into four cercles: Andéramboukane, Inékar, Tidermène, and Ménaka, the location of the capital, also called Ménaka.[5]
