![almuube's tweet photo. 'Aminu Kano (1920-1983) is Gyanawa (Fulani) on his father's side and Bornu Fulani-Beriberi (Kanuri) on his mother's side. During the time of Emir Suleiman (1806-1819), Mamman Zara had come from Kukawa (in Bornu) to become a palace mallam.
He was later imam of Kano. From Mamman Zara descended a line of learned people, including Aminu's mother. On the Gyanawa side, Abdulaziz had been a teacher and an associate of Usman dan Fodio (1754-1817).
His descendants included a number of alkalis and mallams (see Figure 13).
Aminu's grandfather, Hassan, was a mallam in Yakasai ward, specializing in hadith and tafsir. He was also a wealthy merchant. Members of the Gyanawa clan, as mentioned earlier, have had a special place in Kano as specialists in Islamic law.
In the twentieth century, three of the five walis (Suleiman who died in 1943 and was grandfather to General Murtala Muhammad; Bashiru, and Abubakar) have been Gyanawa, as have several mallams involved
in advising emirs (for example Muhammad Dan Amu) and several high-level
alkalis (such as Abubakar Bashir Wali [1931-2019], chief justice of the Shari'a Court of Appeal, Kano State; and Umar Bashiru, inspector of courts, Kano State), as
well as some successful businessmen (such as Inuwa Wada [1917-2015]).
Although the family home was in Sudawa ward, Aminu was raised from the age of two in the home of Alkali Ja'afaru of Soron Dinki ward. He remained
with Mallam Ja'afaru while attending Shahuci Primary School and Kano Middle School. From Kano he went to Katsina College for one year and then to Kaduna (now Barewa College, Zaria), where he finished
his teacher training. At that point he was assigned to teach in the Bauchi Provincial Secondary School under Headmaster Abubakar Tafawa Balewa [1912-1966], later prime minister of Nigeria. In 1946-47 he joined the second group of northern Nigerians to study in England, where he undertook advanced work at the London University Institute of Education [The first group included Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Bello Kano, Yahaya Gusau-1915-2008- and Shettima Ajirai].
While in London he helped found the Northern Teachers' Welfare Association, and on his return home he convened the first meeting of the association in 1948. He was assigned as acting education officer in charge of the Teacher Training College in Maru (Sokoto province).
In 1950 he resigned from teaching and helped to found the Northern Elements Progressive Union [NEPU], of which he later became life president.
His involvement in the political life of Nigeria since that time is well known.
Aminu studied Arabic with his father [Acting chief Alkali Yusufu], with Alkali Ja'afaru, and with Cigari dan Waziri. At Shahuci he studied under Alhaji Mallam Gado da Masu, in middle school under Mahmud na Bajir, and in Kaduna under Bello Kagara. His strength was in the area of Arabic literature and interpretation of the Qur'an (tafsir)
(....)
The earliest writings of Aminu Kano criticizing the emirate system were the Hausa plays he wrote while at Kaduna College in 1938-39. In Kai, wanene
a kasuwar Kano da ba za'ce ka ba [Whoever you are, you will be duped in Kano market] he dramatized the exploitation of the rural peasants who come to the city to buy cloth and are cheated by the urban merchants.
In Karya jure take bata 'yaya [Falsehood gives flowers but never fruit] he portrayed the emir's court as a collusion of district heads who extort money' from the peasants and some young colonial officers who come on the scene to connive with the "native rulers." In addition to these two full-length plays, during 1939-41 he wrote about twenty short plays for schools; these ridiculed various local customs and Native Authority practices. He also wrote a pamphlet entitled "Kano under the hammer of native autocracy." He submitted the plays for publication to Gaskiya Ta Fi Kwabo but they were subsequently "lost."
