Chapter 01
1942-1960s reported history
Diabugu in a Sandu public-works memory
The profile says Sandu’s chief arranged wells, market, seed stores and a rest house at Diabugu. These reported works need field checks for surviving sites or records.
A familiar name, a remembered voice. What would you add to the story of Diabugu?

Colonial period
Sandu’s colonial-office context
The article frames chiefs within colonial administration, including tax collection and courts, and subject to colonial dismissal. This keeps public works within the unequal system that shaped the office.
Chapter 03
1942 and colonial rule
Sandu’s reported advisory council
The Point’s 2012 profile says Yugo Kasse Drammeh became Sandu chief in April 1942 and appointed a Native Authority advisory council. It is a historical account, not a model for current governance.
