HistoryKarshi town, believed to be one of the oldest settlement in the middle belt zone, it was founded by Mallam Danbaba. When Islam was first introduced in Kano in the middle of the 14th century, the ruling family to which Danbaba belonged took exception to the new religion known as Karshi today. This uncompromising stand of Danbaba on the new religion led to a series of misunderstanding which culminated in his disinheritance to the throne. Subsequently, Danbaba and his followers migrated from the present Dala Kano to safeguard their faith and gods. As a result, they were nicknamed “GWANDARAWA DA SALLAH”. This means “preference to dance than conversion to Islam”. With time, the name shortened to “GWANDARA” When Danbaba and his followers left Kano, they wandered about the present day Zaria town and later proceeded to an area in Kaduna state and founded Fadan Karshi.

These areas, in what is now Nasarawa state, include new Karshi, Ara, Tudun Wada, Masaka, Takalafiya, etc. Since inception, Karshi have had 27 Emir's.
