Aguibou Tall, son of Cheikh Oumar Tall, was the Faama of Dinguiraye and Massina in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Initially a lieutenant of his older brother Ahmadu Tall, he betrayed the Toucouleur Empire to ally with the French. He remained in power after the French colonial conquest due to an alliance forged with general Louis Archinard.
