‘The museum in Mbala called Moto Moto which means “fire fire” was established in 1974 by Father Corbell, a missionary stationed in Mbala. It was named Moto Moto, in honour of Father Joseph Dupont who was nicknamed Moto Moto for his habit of always having a smoking pipe in his mouth.
The museum displays tools linked to traditional ceremonies and witchcraft, and is considered one of the best displays of the Bemba tribe’s history.
It has the second largest collection of artefacts in the country, after the Livingstone Museum.’
