Chozi

Eastern Africa

Chozi is a town in Nakonde District of Muchinga Province in Zambia, about 10 kilometres west of the district headquarters at Nakonde near the Tanzanian border and roughly 177 kilometres north-east of the provincial capital Chinsali. Lusaka is about 1,302 kilometres away by road. The town sits at an average altitude of about 1,257 metres and belongs to the Nakonde constituency. It is home to the Mwenzo Mission, and the Chozi River flows through the area, with the nearby Chozi floodplain used by local farmers to grow crops. The Chozi railway station is an economic mainstay because copper, lead and zinc are moved through it.
