About 1830, part of the Bassari converted to Islam in the former province of Singueti (Guinea), and the Peul called them Tenda boenis. This group adopted the name of a Peul lineage, Diallo, as well as the marriage rules and way of life of the Peul. About 1915, the first Boïn moved from Guinea to settle in Oubadj, Senegal. Others not very numerous, followed and settled near the border. Little by little, they gave up their specificity and drew near to the Peul. This does not seem to be the case of the Boïn who stayed in Guinea
