    The year stated in this question should be checked again and rectified.

    Answer:

    Company rule came to an end in 1923 in Southern Rhodesia and settlers demanded for the end of company rule because they wanted effective self-government.

    Explanation:

    The settlers in Southern Rhodesia wanted self-government. This was because as the number of white settlers and elected members in the Legislative Council increased, there was a demand for self-government; a gradual transfer from Company rule to self-government took place.

    In 1923 when the Company's charter was revoked by Whitehall, the Southern Rhodesia became a self-governing colony of Britain in that same year.

    In 1924, the Northern Rhodesia experienced an end to British South Africa Company rule.
