Banu Gha

Another dubious article that fails WP:V. Uses the same sources as Ahmed Abdullahi Aliyu Abdurrahim Sumaila. The one citation that might have allowed this to be notable is Al-Wali, Muhammadu (1980). History of Banu Gha. Kano: Kadawa Printing Press. I cannot, however, find any indication that such a book exists anywhere. Given that there are several other articles created with these same false sources by the same farm of editors (two of which are now confirmed socks), I believe this to be a hoax article.
