The Roman Catholic mission of Nyangana is located in the village.[5] HistoryThe settlement is named after Nyangana, king of the Gciriku tribe.[6] Catholic fathers of the organization Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate founded the Nyangana Mission in 1910, after they had been forced to leave the Andara Mission in 1908, as a result of a misfiring of a gun. King Libebe had turned hostile to the missionaries there.[6] Nyangana was founded as a mission station by father Joseph Gotthardt during the seventh Catholic mission expedition to Kavango. The previous six expeditions had not been successful. Nyangana became the bridgehead position for the Catholics in Kavango. Even Andara was founded soon, in 1913, by Gotthardt.[6] Gotthardt later became the Archbishop of South West Africa.
