Tubrow Kapeon Yentu was a Ghanaian politician. He was the member of parliament for the Frafra East constituency[1] from 1954 to 1965 and the member of parliament for the Nabdam constituency from 1965 to 1966.[2]

Yentu was a member of the Northern People's Party (NPP) and consequently a member of the United Party (UP) when all other parties with exception of the Convention People's Party (CPP) merged to form the United Party in 1957. He however, crossed carpets together with Mumuni Bawumia and Mahama Tampurie in 1958 to join the then ruling party; the Convention People's Party.[3][4]
