(Lu)Ganda...
"The BaGanda, the dominant tribe of Uganda, number about one
million, primarily in Buganda Province. They comprise only
one seventh of the nation’s population. Although English is the
official language, LuGanda is employed as lingua franca through-
out much of the country (where no less than 13 distinct tongues
are spoken by more than 100,000 each, besides a host of lesser
languages and dialects). Ganda is closely related linguistically
to
Kiga,
Nyore,
Nyoro,
Teso, and
Ruanda."--1000 Tongues, 1972
