Location of Sansané Haoussa in Niger

Sansané Haoussa (also: Sansanné-Haoussa ) is a village and the capital of the rural community of Kourteye in Niger .

Sansané Haoussa is located on the Niger River and on National Road 1 . After the fall of the Songhai Oak's 1591 Sansane Haoussa one of those places in what is now Niger, on which Songhai -Flüchtlinge under a descendant of the former ruling dynasty Askia settled. In 1899 the French mission Voulet-Chanoine looted the village and murdered many of the residents. With the rule of France and its taxes, the role of Sansané Haoussa as an important trading center disappeared. Under French colonial administration, Sansané Haoussa formed its own canton from 1908 , which was dissolved in 1924 and joined to the Kourteye canton, from which the Kourteye rural community emerged in 2002.

The village had 2,069 people in the 1988 census, 2,055 people in the 2001 census, and 3,202 people in the 2012 census.

In the autobiographical collection of short stories Mon roman au Niger, Louis Carpeaux described the French colonization between Sansané Haoussa and Labbézanga . The episodes initially appeared individually in 1901 under the pseudonym Henri Nielle in the Journal des voyages and finally in 1913 in an anthology.
