Introduction

People in Kutula decide how they will be governed, Bengo refuses to be governed by Lacuna and forms an opposition. He mobilizes the people to rebel against bad governance. The people want a leader who does not oppress them and one who does not shed innocent blood.

Illustrations

Citizens can influence their own governance. Lulu and her school are to sing for their leader Lacuna and she is told by the teacher not to mess as it would be blamed on the teacher.
The people have had enough of oppression and dictatorship and they rebel against the leadership of Lacuna. They choose their own leaders to lead them to revolt. Bukelenge
occupants organize a peaceful march carrying doves. The army has no reason to hurt them. They do not use weapons as they do not want any bloodshed.

The people have support from all tribesincluding some of Lacuna's supporters. They are planning to get Lacuna out of the palace from the inside and with no weapons. Bengo and the leaders do not want bloodshed and they insist on unity if they want to win. They choose a Sangoi, a spiritual leader and a leader who chooses peace. In doing so, they are in charge of their governance. Bengo is also a patriot and does not want any bloodshed in the process of liberating the people.

Authority is given to people who have fought bad governance like Bengo. These people know the way to govern the people as they have fought bad leaders like Lacuna Kasoo. They lead the people peacefully to get what they want without violence.

Conclusion

The people choose the leaders that they want and the way to be lead. Bengo and Sangoi lead the people to rebel but no weapons are used. They are still able to remove Lacuna from power
