Mbadja people
text:
The Mbadja or Ovambadja is an independent Bantu tribe that speaks the Oshimbadja language. The tribe consider themselves to be a distinct ethnic group, and the Namibian government formally recognised them in 2002. They originate from Ombadja in southern Angola, Cunene Province. About 20% of the Mbadja people migrated from south Angola during the 20th century into the northern part of Namibia. They occupied an area of land that they named "Okalongo", which translates to "a small country". Althoug
