Yaya Diallo's family was semi-nomadic. One part stayed in Fienso and the second was nomadic in the hostile Miniankala. Minianka farmers used to hate Fula people because the animals destroyed crops and young plants. In order to travel, Fula people have to be initiated to the most secret societies. Yaya Diallo's grandfather, Flantio became a powerful man who was feared by everyone. When he touched you with his magic stick, you got diarrhea. Flantio took back the name Diallo. He married Yaya's grandmother, gNire Kone, from the powerful family Kone of the village Ziena. She was a midwife.
