NUPE PEOPLE OF NIGER STATE
Hello everyone, sorry I have not been able to
get you updates recently. We move to the power
state. To the undisputed head-quarters of Nupe
people in Nigeria, I bring you Bida.
The Nupe people live in the heart of Nigeria,
spread over the lower basin formed by the two
rivers, Kaduna and Niger also known as Lavun
and Edu respectively. The traditional inhabitants
of the ancient city (Banin Bida) were known as
Beni. As we all know, in those days( before
before) other sources of power or mystical
powers to be precise were in vogue. Beni was
not an exception but with the coming of Islam,
life was changed. History has it that in 1804,
Fulani rulers displaced the Bida Nupe leadership
structure quite early in the 19th century. Mallam
Dendo (Manko) who was the Fulani leader
became the new leader of the empire. In 1832,
Usman Zaki (Manko's son) became the first
Etsu Nupe.
In Bida, there are three ruling houses where
Etsu Nupe rotates. These are:
1. MASABA HOUSE
2.USMAN ZAKI HOUSE
3.UMARU MAJIGI HOUSE.
After the emergence of the first Etsu Nupe,
here are the Etsu Nupes from the three houses
as follows:
