Introduction

Bengo is a patriot who loves his country. When Lacuna oppresses the people, Bengo opposes him and is sent to prison as he wants to liberate his people. Moreover, he does not want any bloodshed as he leads the people to rebel against Lacuna.

Illustrations

Bengo is a true patriot and is the key to bringing liberation to Kitula. He is imprisoned because he is among those who oppose Lacuna's leadership.

They can see the wrongs he is doing and they want to liberate the people. Bengo is popular among the people. However, he is imprisoned by Lacuna who wants to give leadership to his cronies. Chipande wins elections after Benga is put in.

Benga sees himself as a servant of the people and not their master and is thus popular because he wants to serve them and not rule them. He promises to pick the fight from where he left. He is ready to sacrifice for the people. He organizes some of the leaders so that they can chart the way to rebel against Lacuna without causing more suffering to the people. He wants to lead a rebellion with Sangoi that bloodshed and pain. He wants their love because they will live as the rebellion.

He asks the Reverend Sangoi to pray before they start their operation. He loves his country and countrymen as he does not want them to lose their lives or have their property destroyed, When his brother Judah is killed, he is there to comfort his sister-in-law and it even makes him resolve to drive Lacuna out of leadership.

Conclusion

A true patriot loves not only his country but also his people. Bengo loves his people and wants them to live in peace as they have suffered enough in the hands of Lacuna Kasoo. He does not want any deaths lest the people lose their kin in the liberation and then regret why their loved ones were killed.
