HC Deb 23 November 1925 vol 188 c899
39. Captain LODER

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has any information regarding the migration of natives from Portuguese East Africa into adjacent British territories?

Mr. AMERY

Natives of Portuguese East Africa have been migrating into the Nyasaland Protectorate in considerable numbers for many years. At the census taken in Nyasaland in 1921 the number of Anguru, a tribe inhabiting Portuguese East Africa, was computed at 108,204. and it was supposed that there were many more immigrant Anguru who had been adopted into other tribes in the Protectorate. There is also some migration of natives from Portuguese East Africa into the Tanganyika territory, and on a small scale into Northern Rhodesia, but statistics are not available.
