The *main spirit mediums of the First Chimurenga (1896–1897)* were: 1. *Mbuya Nehanda (Charwe Nyakasikana)* - Medium of the spirit Nehanda (a powerful ancestral spirit of the Shona). - She encouraged the Shona people to fight against colonial rule. - She was captured and hanged by the British in 1898. 2. *Sekuru Kaguvi (Gumboreshumba)* - Medium of the spirit Kaguvi (a male spirit associated with justice and war). - He worked closely with Mbuya Nehanda. - He motivated many warriors and was also executed by the British. Yes! In addition to *Mbuya Nehanda* and *Sekuru Kaguvi*, here are more *spirit mediums and leaders* linked to the First Chimurenga: 3. *Mukwati* - A spiritual leader among the Ndebele. - Played a major role in organizing resistance in Matabeleland. - Worked with Ndebele chiefs like *Lobengula’s indunas*. 4. *Mlimo* - A powerful spiritual figure in Matabeleland. - Believed to have inspired the Ndebele to rise up. - Operated from the Matopos Hills. 5. *Chaminuka (spirit)* - Although not active during the Chimurenga, many believed his spirit guided the struggle spiritually. These spirit mediums were respected figures who united people through cultural and religious beliefs, leading to a strong fight against colonial oppression.
