Diallo came from a prominent Fulbe family of Muslim religious leaders. His grandfather had founded the town of Bundu, and he grew up with Samba Geladio Diegui the heir (kamalenku) to the Kingdom of Futa-Toro. In 1730, Ayuba became a victim of the ever-growing slave exploitation of the Senegambia region. Ayuba and his interpreter Loumein Yoas (also known as “Lamine Jay,” “Lahamin Joy,” “Lahmin Jay,” “Lamine Ndiaye,” “Loumein Ybai,” and “Lamine Jay”) were near the Gambia River to trade slaves and paper. While visiting some friends on their return trip, Ayuba and Yoas were captured by invading Mandingoes.[1] The invaders shaved their heads to make them appear as war captives, and thereby supposedly legitimately enslavable, as opposed to their actual condition of people captured in a kidnapping raid for the specific purpose of selling slaves for financial profit. The two men were sold to factors of the Royal African Company. Ayuba subsequently convinced English Captain Pike of his high social status, and explained his father was capable of paying ransom. Pike granted Ayuba leave to find someone to send word to Ayuba’s family. Since the messenger did not return in time, at the behest of Captain Henry Hunt, Pike’s superior, Ayuba and Loumein were sent across the Atlantic to Annapolis, Maryland, where he was delivered 1 Like

Re: African Americans Of Partly Hausa Descent by Nobody: 1:44pm On Jun 20, 2015 |
kaura5000: I think the OP is talking about people who took the controversial DNA test and found they were partly of Hausa ancestry. 'Being Hausa' and 'being of Hausa descent' do not exactly mean the same thing. 4 Likes |

Bullshit! Anthony Anderson is Jaybee3 and he has no Hausa blood |
Re: African Americans Of Partly Hausa Descent by Nobody: 4:14am On Jun 21, 2015 |
kaura5000: Lol! Calm down mate, I know how much we enjoy, take pride even in the fact that our people may have had an easier time during slavery, probably the statement I posted above may suggest that these people that have tikar and or hausa or fulbe blood may have been actually tikar indeed but on the other hand there's still the possibility of traces of hausa dna in them, so it's plausible. And the bloke you posted below is a pullo man btw, not hausa. I thought someone as learned as you in hausa culture would know better than to cram us together, I think you created the appropriate thread for that. But thanks for your input nonetheless, surprised your good friend fulaman198 didn't show up though. 1 Like |
