Luanshya (constituency)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Luanshya is a constituency of the National Assembly of Zambia. The modern constituency covers all but the western parts of Luanshya and the town of Fisenge in Luanshya District of Copperbelt Province.[1]

The constituency was established in 1941 when Ndola was split into two and originally covered the towns of Luanshya and Mufulira.[2] It was later reconfigured to cover Luanshya and Kansenji and then Luanshya and Kalulushi.
