Lisala is a territory of Mongala province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. After the town of Lisala became a separately administered city, it was decided to move the territory's administrative center from there to Bobala.[2]
The population is made up of several different ethnic groups, notably Ngombe with minorities of Mongo, Ngandi, Ngwaka and Budja.[citation needed]
The area is crossed by the N6 road, of the Route Nationale and is bordered to the west by the Mongala River and to the south by the Congo River.[3]
