Sigeria, A Child Of Conflicts Pleasure Bakare

Though Bausaland reached her summit in growth and development in early 18th century, the end of the century met the land facing different challenges. The kingdom started to experience deterioration in growth and economy. Instead of their leaders to seek ways of solving the problem, they heightened it by burdening commoners with more taxes and levies in order to maintain their luxurious lifestyles. The commoners were oppressed and sold as slaves till early 19th century when relief came through Dan Fudo. How was Bausaland overthrown by Dan Fudo's forces? What was the effect of 'holy migration' to Bausaland and other kindgoms in Sigeria? What impact did Al-kameni make and how did he ascend power?What happened after the death of Al-kameni?Join me to find answers to all these questions and many more as I take you through the journey of reminiscences. The power of history is that it repeats itself.
