However, according to the Wanda themselves, they live in Kamsamba ward in Momba District Council (it’s also the heartland) and Kipeta ward in Sumbawanga District. The 2012 cencus counted 17 055 people in Kamsamba ward and 25 755 people in Kipeta ward."

"At least half [of Wanda people speak Swahili] as education is in Swahili but their Swahili is limited, pre-school children and older people (60 and above) don’t speak it. Wanda is used as long as there are no non-Wanda speakers around. We have been told that even people from other tribes who start living among the Wanda will learn it and use it."
