Chinchimane, also known as Chinchimani,[2] is a settlement in Namibia's Zambezi Region, located 64 kilometres southwest of the region's capital, Katima Mulilo. It is part of the Sibbinda Constituency and serves as the Royal Headquarters of the Mafwe people.[3]
Chinchimane is an integral part of the Sibbinda Constituency and is home to the Lusata Headquarters, the traditional authority of the Mafwe people. Each year, Chinchimane hosts the Lusata Festival, a significant cultural event in Namibia. In Silozi "Lusata" means long stick without a knob. This mace is adorned with ivory by the Mafwe and carried by the Mafwe King as a symbol of royal authority.
In addition to its cultural richness, Chinchimane thrives with community activities and local businesses that contribute to its dynamic economy. Agriculture plays a vital role, alongside emerging tourism ventures that benefit from its proximity to Bamunu Conservancy, Mudumu National Park, and Nkasa Rupara National Park. These natural attractions make Chinchimane a prime destination for nature and wildlife enthusiasts.
Chinchimane is home to Simataa Secondary School, named after its patron, Stanley Mutumba Simataa, the former Minister of Information and Communication Technology. This school stands as a testament to the community's commitment to education and development.
