Biography in the Kano Chronicle
[edit | edit source]Below is a biography of Dauda Abasama II from Palmer's 1908 English translation of the Kano Chronicle.[2]
The 42nd Sarki was Dauda Abasama, the son of Yaji. His mother’s name was Baiwa.
He was a Sarki of good character, reticent and wise, generous and popular. He was prudent and at the same time warlike, and kept his word. He had a mind above favouritism or revenge, and took the Galadima Makarna’s advice in everything. The Galadima Makama was like a Sarki, while Dauda was like his Wazir, because he was so forbearing. There was no war in his reign or rebellion.
He ruled Kano 5 years and 4 months.
