Rosariò De Andrade, a successful prazo holder who was known as Kanyemba ("the ferocious"). Kanyemba began assembling a private army known as the Chikunda in the 1870s and settled in the region of Bawa, two hundred kilometers west of Tete, from which he either traded with or raided the surrounding countryside. In the 1880s, this warlord was said to have 10000 chikunda at arms. Andrade died in the late nineteenth century and his descendants have retained the village's chieftainship to the present time.
Kanyemba is widely used as a surname in the Mashonaland province. In 2018, the government of Zimbabwe set up a 200 hectare irrigation scheme for the local communities including Chansola village. The major tribes found in Kanyemba are the Chikunda and Doma people.
