B - Kanta of Kebbi: The film displays the history and culture
of the former Kebbi Kingdom and the life and time of its historical figure,
the Kanta of Kebbi, and the relationship between Kebbi and her neighbours
(Mali, Ghana, Sudan) at a time when different kingdoms engaged in military
warfare in order to expand their territories. |
