Senga people

The Senga are an ethnic tribe of Zambia, distinct from the Nsenga.

The Senga are a tribe who migrated from the southern part of present-day Congo DRC. They re-settled in the Luangwa valley amongst the Tumbuka speaking people.[1] The language they speak though similar to Tumbuka is distinct and also shares a common strain with Bisa/Bemba.
