Fatoumata,
Armitage School was built in 1923 to educate sons of chief under 
"British Protection".

I would like to add a few provocative questions.

1) Who were Amad Ba (Maba Jahu Ba) and Fodi Kaba Dumbuya? Jihadists, 
trouble makers or anti-colonial resistant leaders?
2) Was Musa Molo a pragmatist guardian of his father's kingdom of Fuladu 
or "sell out" / collaborator to the European colonialists?
