lunch or supper, people usually eat nshima with fish, meat, peanuts or beans. Nshima na nkuku is a popular chicken dish [ Worldhope.org ].

Zambia's History - Wikipedia
Except for an occasional Portuguese explorer, the area now called Zambia lay untouched by Europeans for
centuries. After the mid-19th century, it was penetrated by Western explorers, missionaries, and traders.
David Livingstone, in 1855, was the first European to see the magnificent waterfalls on the Zambezi River. He

Kaunda's Gaoler: Memoirs of a District Officer in Northern Rhodesia and Zambia
E.Cyril Greenall, David G. Coe
African nationalist leaders used to joke about a spell in a British colonial prison as being an essential rite of
passage in the struggle for independence and leadership of the new state. This is the memoir of a district
officer in Northern Rhodesia, from his arrival in the territory in 1944 through the period leading to Zambian
independence. It includes a spell as Kenneth Kaunda's "gaoler", during which a personal friendship grew up
and flourished, and ends with an appointment to the President's Office in post-independence Zambia. This is
the story of British colonial administration and the daily round of a District Officer's life during the nationalist
struggle and the formative period of an independent African state and of a close and enduring friendship.
