Queen Amina of Zaria 1588-1589 The elder daughter of Bakwa Turunku, who founded the Zazzau Kingdom in 1536, Queen Amina came to power between 1588 and 1589 A. D. Unlike her younger sister, Zariya (from whom the city of Zaria derives its name), Amina is generally remembered for her fierce military exploits.
I'm trying to find info on her sister Zariya. All of the articles I come across do not say much of anything about her.
