Biography in the Kano Chronicle
[edit]Below is a biography of Dakauta from Palmer's 1908 English translation of the Kano Chronicle.[2]
The 17th Sarki was Dakauta. He was dumb. The people said, “If he becomes Sarki he will be able to speak.”
When he had been made Sarki, and after one night did not speak, they turned him out again.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
