"Southern Kaduna Belongs To Us" - Hausa-Fulani Nomadic

“Most of the major towns in Southern Kaduna were founded by Hausa Fulani for example, Zango, Kachia, Unguwan Rimi, Zankuwa, Kagarko, Jere and Jama’a (Kafanchan).

“Hausa Fulani are the largest single tribe in Southern Kaduna. In spite of this, they are always targets or victims of circumstances.

“The Muslims are always referred to as settlers while it is historically on record that Southern Kaduna was founded by Fulani tribe called KACHECHERE.

“It is important to note that by immigration the tribes in Southern Kaduna migrated from other part of the Country. Some came in the morning, some in the afternoon and others in the evening.

“For instance, the Bajju or Kaje migrated from Bauchi, Atyap (Kataf) migrated from Kargi – the East part of Zaria; Kaninkon and Kagoma from Taraba; Jaba and Koro from Kano etc.

“It is also on record that, the ancient town of Kauru and Kajuru were as old as Zaria city founded by Hausa-Fulani.

“While Jema’a emirate was founded by the Hausa-Fulani in 1810, Zango town which was also founded by Hausa-Fulani, has been in existence right from West African Trans Sahara trade.

“Kagarko and Jere were also founded by the Hausa-Fulani as well as Kachia.”
