The Wahinda are a clan or class (better than a tribe) of Eastern Africa, especially Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi, where they had a ruling role among different tribes.[1]
They originated from the North as shown by their physical aspect [2]
The Wahinda believed the drum was so holy that seeing one of them would be fatal to any person other than the sultan.[3][4][5]
The late Sam Magara, a Ugandan military leader, was from the Muhinda clan of the Bahima.[6]
