  • Description: "How many tribes are there? The Lamba, the Lenje, the Lumbo not forgetting the Kande, because we admire their language. We make fun of the Nyakyusa and the Kasai, on account of their dress; plain dresses are just as good. Look at a girl from the Mumbo region, she does not dress like a Kasai, yet look at her beautiful clothes. When you change over from your country dress, do not take quickly to town dresses and become a prostitute. Kalela dance song.
