Fugomba was a place where marabouts and chiefs of the Fula people gathered to read and discuss the Quran. It was here that the decision to launch a holy war against the infidels was decided in 1725, and here that Karamokho Alfa was chosen to lead the jihad.In 1762 the king of Sankaran, Konde Burama, attacked the new formed state and was only with difficulty prevented from taking Fugumba. The forces of Ibrahima Sory did not remove the threat from Sankaran until 1776.
