Ibrahim Kura of Borno

Ibrahim or Ibrahim bin Umar al-Kanemi (1840s-c. 1885) was Shehu of Borno from c. 1884 to c. 1885.

Ibrahim became Shehu of Borno in 1884 at the death of his brother Bukar Kura.

His uncle, Abba Masta Kura had been recognised Shehu before him but Ibrahim succeeded to bribe his way to the throne.

His one-year reign was marked by an intense political crisis in Kukawa.
