== History == Alkalawa was originally a quarter for an alkali ("judge" in Hausa) in the kingdom of Zamafara, hence the name Alkalawa. In the early 19th-century, Fulani jihadist Usman dan Fodio attacked Yunfa's forces (ruler of the kingdom of Gobir) at Alkalawa. The city fell in October 1808, marking the end of resistance to Fulani rule in the region.
