(Redirected from Lendu language)The 'Lendu' are an ethno-linguistic agriculturalist group residing in eastern
Democratic Republic of Congo in the area west and northwest of
Lake Albert, in particular the
Ituri region of
Orientale province. The lineage of the
Lendu language is eastern
Central Sudanic. There are approximately 750,000 Lendu speakers in the DRC, and 10,000 more in
Uganda. A conflict between the Lendu and the ethnic
Hema has formed the basis of the
Ituri conflict.
