Sokoto Fulani of Eastern Niger

The Sokoto Fulani are a subgroup of the much larger Fulani people of West Africa. They are found in southeastern Niger and northern Nigeria. Ninety-nine percent of this people group of 480,000 follows a mixture of Islamic and traditional African beliefs. There is no Bible in their dialect; they have never heard the gospel. There has been virtually no Christian witness among them for centuries.

Relationships are My Ministry

"Making relationships is vital to my ministry" says journeyman Danielle Koepke. Last month, we hosted a volunteer optometry team who came to fit glasses and educate the villagers on eye care. He did a wonderful job, and the people were so excited to see us. Please pray that this act of service would help create more relationships in our villages and that Christ's love would be shown through our service.

    hey, i have a question. where can i get alot of info. on the fulani tribe? i am a senior in high school and have felt a call to be a missionary to Africa since 8th grade. I started researching this particular tribe because i saw something on CNN about a Fulani initiation and I thought I would like 2 help that tribe one day.
