1My gratitude goes to the French Institute for Research in Africa/Institut Frangais de Recherche en Afrique (IFRA Ibadan) for accepting my proposal and sponsoring my fieldwork in Kaduna, Zaria, Kano and Maiduguri.

2I am particularly grateful to the Director of the Institute, Professor Georges Herault, for his interest in the research topic. Dr. Jinmi Adisa, Department of Political Science, University of Ibadan also encouraged me. I wish to express my gratitude to him for his invaluable contribution to this work.

3Thanks are also due to Olawuyi Omitoogun, my colleague at the University of Maiduguri and Ibadan, whose sound academic advice helped me in planning and conducting this research.

4The influence of Dr. Morayo I. Atinmo, my teacher and doctoral research supervisor is also reflected in this monograph.

5Finally, I wish to thank my numerous informants in Kaduna, Kano and Maiduguri, and my research assistants, Mr. Ayuba K. Haruna and Stephen S. Hamafeyelto. My gratitude also goes to the staff of Arewa House. Kaduna, and the Kano State History and Culture Bureau, Kano, for allowing me access to their libraries.
