In the 17th century, Déoulé was one of several Azna rulers in the Ader area , whose sovereignty was disputed between the Sultanate of Aïr and Kebbi . In 1674 the Sultan of Aïr defeated the Kanta of Kebbi militarily and subsequently set up a province in Ader, of which he appointed his son to be governor. The Azna mansions were retained and integrated into the administration of the Ader province. The French administration established a canton in Déoulé in 1909 . The market in the village of Djibalé , part of Déoulé, was one of the small markets in the region that was approved by the French administration at the beginning of the 20th century. In 2002, as part of a state-wide administrative reform, the canton Déoulé became the rural municipality of Déoulé.
