Kikwit has four communes: Kazamba, Lukemi, Lukolela and Nzida. In pre-colonial times, the city was a port for rubber, ivory and palm oil. In 1920, this city was named Makaku or Makal and was renamed Poto-Poto in 1937. The city was an obligatory relay for the distribution of mail and fuel and in 1940 it became a banking center with the opening of a branch of the Bank of the Belgian Congo.
