BUSSA

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 875 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BUN-CAL
BUSSA , a town in the British protectorate of Northern Nigeria, on the west
bank
  of the Niger, in Io 9' N., 4 40' E. It is situated just above the rapids which mark the limit of navigability of the Niger by steamer from the sea. Here in 18o6 Mungo Park, in his second expedition to trace the course of the Niger, was attacked by the inhabitants, and drowned while endeavouring to escape. During 18941898 its
possession
  was disputed by
Great
  Britain and
France
 , the last-named country acknowledging by the convention of June 1898 the British claim, which carried with it the
control
  of the
lower
  Niger. It is now the
capital
  of northern Borgu (see NIGERIA, and BORGU).
