Ngoni people

The Ngoni are a Bantu-speaking ethnic group originating from southern Africa who migrated to parts of East Africa, including Malawi, Tanzania, and Zambia, during the 19th century. They are known for their warrior traditions, rich cultural practices, and strong community bonds. Historically, the Ngoni played significant roles in local conflicts and resistance against colonial powers. Today, they maintain their unique customs, music, and social structures while integrating into broader national identities within the countries they inhabit. Their culture reflects a blend of indigenous traditions and adaptations from their varied historical experiences.
