Al-Amin Abu-Manga was born in Maiurno (Sennar State) in 1951,[1] to a Fulani family.
He began his higher education at the University of Khartoum (1970-1976), and studied in France before finally completing a Ph.D. at the University of Marburg in Germany.
[3] Among other linguistic and ethnographic research, Abu-Manga has published monographs on Fulfulde[4] and Hausa[5] in the Sudan, addressing the influence of Arabic on these languages as spoken far from their West African heartlands.
