Misau, additionally spelled Missau, or Messau, town and customary emirate, northern Bauchi state, northern Nigeria, 5 miles (8 km) northwest of the Misau River, the upper stretch of the Komadugu Gana. Initially occupied by Hausa individuals, the town was caught in 1827 by the emirs Yakubu of Bauchi and Dan Kauwa of Katagum. The resulting contest between them drove the ruler of Sokoto to put (1831) the town and its encompassing region under the locale of Mamman Manga (the child of Gwani Mukhtar, the Fulani fighter who had vanquished Birni Ngazargamu, capital of the Bornu realm, in 1808 during the Fulani jihad, or blessed war). He is credited with establishing Misau emirate.

During Emir Ahmadu's rule (1833–50) the town divider was built. The military endeavors of Emir Sale (controlled 1860–86) drove the king to develop the emirate.
