The traditional center of leadership in the district, named for the local chief, Ndanga. Either a shortened form of the word ndatanga – “I began”, or ndanga ndiri pano – “I was here (first)” Recalls an ancient quarrel between the first Chief Gutu and his elder brother, then called Mtastsuri, but later Ndanga. The greater Ndanga district is vast, extending as far south as Jerera, it is this original Ndanga area that is home to the district's largest hospital. Not only is Ndanga District Hospital a major hospital in its district, it is also the second major hospital in the whole province. A relatively small business centre, with its sprawling residential area, lies adjacent to the hospital.
