    Yes everyone belongs to his ethic group regardless where you live.
    No one changes the the ethnicity due to the location.
    If you are Luvale you are Luvale even if you live in Kitwe.

    Point of corrections Bemba doesn't cover 5 provinces of Zambia, Bemba are indigenous of parts of Northern province and Muchinga province.
    Of late the people of Luapula who are not Bembas are counted together with Bembas for the long time the two groups have been together.

    Let me conclude now
    Lambas and Bembas are not the same what is in this video is full of lies and misleading information.
    The two are not the same linguistically, traditionally and with customerily. The language spoken in copper belt urban is not Bemba but a lingua franca.
    It's like the Lusaka Nyanja, when did you hear the Nyanja lusaka is part of eastern because of Nyanja?
    I think this issue needs to be settled once and for all.
    I rest my case

    The Luba and Lunda kingdom were not in Katanga province, but they were in the Upemba depression near the current Lualaba province.
    Katanga is a recent place founded by the great Lamba people, of interest to note is the fact that even the name Katanga came from a Lamba chief in Lubumbushi.

    The Portuguese trader of the year 21/09/1798 was not in relation to the Bembas but Lambas who where trading in copper and ivory, with the neoubouring tribes inclusive of the Mwata Kazembe the date was the journal was dated 21/09/1798.
    Whosoever, misguided you with this falsehood is a cursed one, and will never see good days.
    The lies and misguided information is too much.
    Lambas reached the lambaland in later 1500 and by 1600 the lambas started the mining operations the extraction of ore took place on two locations, that is Bwanamkubwa near Ndola and Kansashi near Solwezi, both locations in lambaland not Bembaland.
    The smelting took place in Mufulira and from there the copper cathode found their way into the market.
    Bembas and Lambas in the known history they have never met not at all. Until in the years 1940s when they came to Lambaland in search of employment.
    There is no oral tradition non-written account which talks about the two great tribes meeting nothing, not at all whosoever, if one says that then he is talking from the political side.

    The history of the Lambas is straight forward and simple, Lambas migrated from the Luba-lunda kingdom or empire under the great King Mwata Yamva.
    The lady who was the youngest wife of the great king Mwata Yamva, whose name was Chembo Kasako Chimbala was not happy with the porrigomous marriage, so she run away to come and hide in the land called Ilamba or Lambaland.
    This is the genesis of the great Lamba people.
    By 1600 Lambas were trading in copper and ivory to the neoubouring tribes and the Kazembe was the prominent one.
    This was confirmed by the Portuguese explorer as it appeared on the journal dated 21/09/1798.
    This can be confirmed by the writing of the most prominent linguistic Professor Dr. Clement M. Doke in his book entitled "The Lamba People of Northern Rhodesia:.
    That all for now.
