40 biggest cities along the African Great Lakes on a blank map

Can you name the 40 biggest cities in located on the coast of the African Great Lakes? Different sources include different lakes on the region. For this quiz, I counted these:Turkana. Victoria, Kyoga, Albert, Edward, Kivu, Tanganyika, Rukwa, Mworu and Malawi. They are the ones that appear on the map.
Even though every subdivision that has a coast on one of the lakes is coloured, only cities located on the coast of the lakes count
As you name cities, they will appear on the map
Source:citypopulation.de. Population is measured by city proper
The colour of the population boxes indicates the country:

Yellow represents Uganda / White represents Kenya

Red represents Burundi / Light Blue represents Rwanda

Dark Blue represents the DRC / Light Green represents Tanzania

Orange represents Zambia / Dark Green represents Mozambique

Good quiz. What about Lilongwe and Blantyre? I believe that they are within the yellow section of your map.

Yes they are, but they are not on the lakes' coast.

The yellow zone indicates the subdivisions (provinces, states, etc...) that touch one or more of the lakes, but only cities directly along the lakes are included.

Btw, hope this isn't too confusing!
