The Ngoni people of Zambia

                                      
            
                                                              THE PEOPLE;
The Ngoni people are originally from South Africa. They were fleeing from Shaka Zulu and they migrated into Eastern Zambia and adopted the fighting tactics of Shaka to conquer the people that they found in that land. The Ngony people speak chichewa, the language of the people they conquered. Their traditional ceremony is called "Nc'wala", this is a thanksgiving ceremony held every year at Mtenguleni Village.
