Sumaila is a historic town and headquarters of a Local Government Area in Kano State, Northern Nigeria. ==History== Sumaila was established as a Jobe- Fulani 'Sansani' or Settlement in the 1740s. located within the fertile plains of south eastern Kano, it provided the clan an easy migratory pathway to the grazing grounds of the savannah of eastern Hausa land. Originally called 'Garun- Sam'ila' after one of its first settlers, it attracted little attention during the time of the Sultanate, The sharp Rise of Jobe influence in eastern Kano in the late 18th century saw the construction of a stockade and a partial fort around the town in the 1750s. Sumaila rose to prominence in the time of the Caliphate when it became the site of an epic battle that halted the advance of the (Bornoan) cavalry when El-Kanemi encroached into the Sokoto Caliphate. When during the Reign of Emir Abdullahi Maje-Karofi, the Ningi rebellion broke out, a Ribat was constructed around the town and a permanent fulani force was stationed there to protect the southern borders of the Emirate. During the Kano civil war or Basasa, Sumaila was a major hub for pan-Yusuf forces because of its close proximity to Takai; the capital of the Yusufawa. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sumaila」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
