Description

"Hence, it is not uncommon to have two headmen in a particular settlement: one hereditary or elected by the community, the other appointed by the JHEOA. The tendency is for the JHEOA to appoint someone who is at least a little literate in Mlay, and preferably someone who is amenable to its dictates. This usually implies a younger person, and therefore usually someone less experiences in the traditions and customs of thee community."
