In the 1790s the Nupe Kingdom was a rising power in the region and had taken Lapai from Oyo. However, with the onslaught of the Fulani Jihad their lands, including Lapai, were conquered by the Sokoto Caliphate. [ 1 ] The people of the region became subject to the Hausa kingdom of Zazzau. After 1804 they came under the Fulani emirate of Zaria, part of the realm of the emir of Gwandu. The Lapai emirate was separated from the emirates of Zaria and Agaie in 1825. [ 2 ] The emirate was founded in 1828 when Mallam Baba sent his Lieutenant Daudu Muza to subjugate the area. Daudu was successful, but kept the land for himself. [ 3 ] The emirate remained a tributary to the Gwandu emirate until 1903, when the British took control. [ 4 ] Rulers The emirate remains in existence, although it was subject first to British colonial rule and later to civilian or military rule of the independent state of Nigeria. Emirs were: [ 5 ] Da ' udu Maza dan Jaura ( 1825 - 1832 ) Yamuza dan Jaura ( 1832 - 1835 ) Baji dan Jaura ( 1835 - 1838 ) Jantabu dan Jaura ( 1838 - 1874 ) ` Atiqu dan Jantabu (1874 - 1875 ) Bawa dan Jantabu (1875 - 1893 ) ` Abd al - Qadiri dan (1893 - 1907 ) Ibrahim dan Jantabu ( 1907 - 1923 ) ` Aliyu Gana dan ` Abd al- Qadiri (1923 - Apr 1937 ) ` Umaru dan Ibrahim (1937 - Nov 1954 ) Muhammadu Kobo dan ` Aliyu Gana ( 1954 - 13 Jun 2002 ) Umaru Bago Tafida ( 10 Aug 2002 ) 2 : Local Government Areas in Niger State|Populated places in Niger State |
