<subfield code="a"><p><strong>Sheik Omar Futi&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>When Sheik Omar Futi left Almami Omar, he went to Karanta Tasilmanta and was welcomed&nbsp;there.&nbsp;&nbsp;He stayed for a while and continued to Cherno Saidou Deleng.&nbsp;&nbsp;When he arrived,&nbsp;he was welcome&nbsp;again.&nbsp;Cherno Saidou Deleng reminded him of the papers he lost a long time, while&nbsp;on his way from Mecca and returned them&nbsp;to&nbsp;him.&nbsp;After Sheik Omar settled at Dingirai he&nbsp;entangled in&nbsp;a big dispute with Tamba Boukar which was caused by a griot&nbsp;named&nbsp;Jali Madi Jeebahate.&nbsp;&nbsp;Jali Madi was Tamba Boukar&rsquo;s griot who&nbsp;had&nbsp;visited&nbsp;Sheik Omar and&nbsp;decided to stay.&nbsp;While Jali Madi&nbsp;remained&nbsp;there, Sheik Omar started the construction of a fortress and Tamba Boukar sent his men to destroy it. This was done&nbsp;a&nbsp;second time,&nbsp;but Sheik Omar with the help of spiritual powers&nbsp;was able to continue building&nbsp;without Tamba Boukar&nbsp;realizing this. &nbsp;When this&nbsp;incident occurred,&nbsp;Tamba Boukar sent his men to attack Sheik Omar. He also ordered them to&nbsp;bring back Jali Madi alive or dead.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tamba&rsquo;s men stormed&nbsp;into&nbsp;the fortress to seize Jali Madi,&nbsp;but Sheik Omar refused to let&nbsp;him be captured. A clash ensued between both Tamba and Sheik Omar&rsquo;s men,&nbsp;and they fought&nbsp;so intensely&nbsp;to a heightened point that&nbsp;Sheik Omar&rsquo;s&nbsp;griots wanted to belittle&nbsp;him.&nbsp;This&nbsp;angered him and he prayed to God.&nbsp;&nbsp;His prayers were accepted and suddenly the&nbsp;entire town&nbsp;was engulfed in fire, Tamba&rsquo;s men deserted the area.&nbsp;Sheik Omar and his men followed them to Mori Bugu,&nbsp;and chased them to Jerigoreh and to Dabiya Kurukoto.&nbsp;&nbsp;Tamba Boukar was later captured&nbsp;at Mahajang Bugu and killed when he refused to go&nbsp;with&nbsp;Sheik Omar Futi.&nbsp;The ruler of Bambugu asked&nbsp;requested&nbsp;Sheik Omar&nbsp;&lsquo;s&nbsp;support in a planned war,&nbsp;but it was&nbsp;called off.&nbsp;&nbsp;Sheik Omar continued to Bundu,&nbsp;where he found Boukar Sada.&nbsp;He presented one of his sons to Sheik Omar, so that he would be taught, but he ran away.&nbsp;Sheik Omar continued to Kaso where he met Juka Sambala the son of Ndama Yamadu, who welcomed him.&nbsp;It was here that&nbsp;Sheik Omar wanted to convert&nbsp;him&nbsp;to Islam,&nbsp;but he declined.&nbsp;So,&nbsp;Sheik Omar warned his men not to attack him.&nbsp;&nbsp;While he was leaving,&nbsp;the women sang for him and he prayed for them.&nbsp;He continued to Karta, where he met Baraka Konteh and&nbsp;requested&nbsp;that he&nbsp;convert to Islam.&nbsp;However, Baraka&nbsp;declined and Sheik Omar threatened him.&nbsp;Nonetheless,&nbsp;he insisted and warned Sheik Omar that if the continued with his threats, he would be&nbsp;chased&nbsp;out of town.&nbsp;&nbsp;Because of this situation&nbsp;Sheik Omar prayed to God and suddenly the&nbsp;entire town of&nbsp;Karta&nbsp;engulfed in flames.&nbsp;&nbsp;Baraka Konteh was later captured and killed.&nbsp;Then,&nbsp;Sheik Omar asked his son Daha to settle there and&nbsp;requested&nbsp;his other son Macky to settle in Dingirai.&nbsp;He&nbsp;continued to Tukoto and his horse was&nbsp;caught&nbsp;by a crocodile at the river.&nbsp;&nbsp;When&nbsp;this incident&nbsp;happened, the river was polluted and&nbsp;could not&nbsp;be used for any&nbsp;purpose, even today.&nbsp;Subsequently, Sheik Omar&nbsp;continued to Fuladugu where he was not welcomed.&nbsp;Because of this&nbsp;the people&nbsp;and most became blind.&nbsp;Continuing his journey, he went&nbsp;to Kita and converted&nbsp;the townspeople&nbsp;to Islam and blessed them, as a result, thepeople of Kita&nbsp;were very&nbsp;successful.&nbsp;He&nbsp;then&nbsp;went to Gali,&nbsp;where he arranged the marriage of Saidy Nuru&rsquo;s mother&nbsp;to&nbsp;Nuru Taal.</p>
