Kulfo

Kulfo lies near Ibeto and the Kontagora River, east of the Niger in the country once associated with Yauri. Kambari communities lived in these inland lands, while Gungawa settlements occupied islands in the Niger. From Birnin Yauri, Hausa rulers extended their authority over Kambari country; local histories record Ibeto among the places brought into the kingdom. The river islands and the wooded country inland thus came under a shared political authority, even as their communities retained distinct identities.
