The name of the Town in "Ulongué" not Vila Ulongué as can be seen in official documents such as the Angónia district profile published by the Ministry of State Administration and available at the address:

When referring to the town of Ulongué in Portuguese one writes "a vila de Ulongué" not "a vila de Vila Ulongué". This is the basis for my decision to change the title of the article to Ulongué and the name of the town in the Angonia article. Teixant 21:55, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

“Vila” is the Portuguese word for “Town”. So when you see “Vila Ulongué” in a map it just means “Ulongué Town”. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SelmaTuga (talk • contribs) 18:15, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
