Battle of Burmi
The Battle of Burmi was fought in 1903 in north-eastern Nigeria between British colonial forces and followers of the deposed caliph Attahiru I, who had fled after the fall of Sokoto. Attahiru was killed in the battle. It marked the final defeat of resistance and the end of the Sokoto Caliphate as an independent state.
