The chiefs appointed by the colonial government often accumulated wealth over time.They had a regular income with which they could buy animals, goods and lands. They lent money to poor neighbours who needed cash to pay taxes. Many began living in towns and got involved in trade. The chiefs had both pastoral and non-pastoral income and could buy animals when their stock was depleted.
