Majiya II | r. 1805 | 1810 | Ruled reunified Nupe. Bruce's notes diverge here from Wikipedia. He has Majiya and Idirisu fighting over Nupe until 1835, then Idirisu fights with someone named Jia from 1836 until 1846. Jia then opposes Usuman Zaki until 1841, and then by Masaba until 1846. Masaba then opposes someone named Maza until 1847. Maza rules until 1848, which is where the notes converge again. | Nupe | |
