Legacies of Colonialism and Islam for Hausa Women: an Historical Analysis, 1804-1960
Legacies of Colonialism and Islam for Hausa Women: An Historical Analysis, 1804-1960 by Kari Bergstrom Michigan State University Winner of the Rita S. Gallin Award for the Best Graduate Student Paper in Women and International Development Working Paper #276 October 2002 Abstract This paper looks at the effects of Islamization and colonialism on women in Hausaland. Beginning with the jihad and subsequent Islamic government of ‘dan Fodio, I examine the changes impacting Hausa women in and outside of the Caliphate he established. Women inside of the Caliphate were increasingly pushed out of public life and relegated to the domestic space. Islamic law was widely established, and large-scale slave production became key to the economy of the Caliphate. In contrast, Hausa women outside of the Caliphate were better able to maintain historical positions of authority in political and religious realms. As the French and British colonized Hausaland, the partition they made corresponded roughly with those Hausas inside and outside of the Caliphate. The British colonized the Caliphate through a system of indirect rule, which reinforced many of the Caliphate’s ways of governance. The British did, however, abolish slavery and impose a new legal system, both of which had significant effects on Hausa women in Nigeria. The French colonized the northern Hausa kingdoms, which had resisted the Caliphate’s rule. Through patriarchal French colonial policies, Hausa women in Niger found they could no longer exercise the political and religious authority that they historically had held. The literature on Hausa women in Niger is considerably less well developed than it is for Hausa women in Nigeria. -
1 Inter-Ethnic Relations and Political Marginalization in Kaduna State
INTER-ETHNIC RELATIONS AND POLITICAL MARGINALIZATION IN KADUNA STATE: A STUDY OF CLAIMS OF DOMINATION IN THE STATE CIVIL SERVICE Mohammed, Shuaibu Department of Political Science and International Studies Faculty of Social Sciences, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria e-mail: [email protected] Abstract This study investigates the validity of agitations against marginalisation in the Kaduna state civil service by the southern Kaduna ethnic groups. The Southern Kaduna Peoples Union (SOKAPU), which claimed to represent the ethnic groups in southern part of the state argues that the ethnic composition of the public service is top heavy with people from the Northern part of the state, while the bottom is heavy with those from the Southern part of the state. Therefore, integrated threat theory is used as a theoretical guide. Furthermore, the study relies on secondary sources of data which was generated from the relevant literature, memos, official documents, Kaduna state pay-roll and other relevant materials. Also, the Federal Character Formulae was used to analyses the Kaduna state civil service workforce using the Kaduna State Budget and Treasury Management Information System (BATMIS). The study reveals that the case presented by SOKAPU over marginalisation of the southern part of the state in the public service contradict the data generated for this study. It has been empirically proved that southern parts Kaduna dominates the central and the northern parts in the state’s Civil Service. Out of the 24931 staff covered, the Southern Kaduna Zone has 12, 872 representing 51.63% while Central Zone has 4, 843 and Northern Zone has 7, 216 representing 19.43% and 28.94% respectively. -

Impact of Long-Term Treatment of Onchocerciasis with Ivermectin in Kaduna State, Nigeria
Tekle et al. Parasites & Vectors 2012, 5:28 http://www.parasitesandvectors.com/content/5/1/28 RESEARCH Open Access Impact of long-term treatment of onchocerciasis with ivermectin in Kaduna State, Nigeria: first evidence of the potential for elimination in the operational area of the African Programme for Onchocerciasis Control Afework Hailemariam Tekle1*, Elizabeth Elhassan2, Sunday Isiyaku3, Uche V Amazigo4, Simon Bush5, Mounkaila Noma6, Simon Cousens7, Adenike Abiose8 and Jan H Remme9 Abstract Background: Onchocerciasis can be effectively controlled as a public health problem by annual mass drug administration of ivermectin, but it was not known if ivermectin treatment in the long term would be able to achieve elimination of onchocerciasis infection and interruption of transmission in endemic areas in Africa. A recent study in Mali and Senegal has provided the first evidence of elimination after 15-17 years of treatment. Following this finding, the African Programme for Onchocerciasis Control (APOC) has started a systematic evaluation of the long-term impact of ivermectin treatment projects and the feasibility of elimination in APOC supported countries. This paper reports the first results for two onchocerciasis foci in Kaduna, Nigeria. Methods: In 2008, an epidemiological evaluation using skin snip parasitological diagnostic method was carried out in two onchocerciasis foci, in Birnin Gwari Local Government Area (LGA), and in the Kauru and Lere LGAs of Kaduna State, Nigeria. The survey was undertaken in 26 villages and examined 3,703 people above the age of one year. The result was compared with the baseline survey undertaken in 1987. Results: The communities had received 15 to 17 years of ivermectin treatment with more than 75% reported coverage. -

FLASH REPORT: POPULATION DISPLACEMENT DTM North Central Nigeria - Igabi LGA (Kaduna State) Nigeria 23 March 2021 OVERVIEW Nigeria's North Central and North West Zones are afflicted with a mul�dimensional crisis that is rooted in long-standing tensions between ethnic and religious groups and involves a�acks by criminal groups and banditry/hirabah (such as kidnapping and grand larceny along major highways). The crisis has accelerated during the past years because of the intensifica�on of a�acks and has resulted in widespread displacement across the region. Between 13 and 21 March, the fear of a�acks by bandits have led to a fresh wave of popula�on displacement. Following these events, a rapid assessment was conducted by DTM (Displacement Tracking Matrix) field staff with the purpose of informing the humanitarian community and government partners, and enable targeted response. Flash reports u�lise direct observa�on and a broad network of key informants to gather representa�ve data and collect informa�on on the number, profile and immediate needs of affected popula�ons.

Ecological Connectivity Index Mapping for Green Infrastructure Development in Kaduna State, Northern Nigeria
Environment and Natural Resources Research; Vol. 8, No. 2; 2018 ISSN 1927-0488 E-ISSN 1927-0496 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Ecological Connectivity Index Mapping for Green Infrastructure Development in Kaduna State, Northern Nigeria Fanan UJOH1, Patrick Samson Udama ENECHE2 & Micah Ekwutosi OBIEGBU3 1 Urban Base Consulting, Abuja, Nigeria 2 Department of Geography & Environmental Studies, Kogi State University, Anyigba, Nigeria 3 Department of Building, Abia State University, Uturu, Nigeria Correspondence: Patrick Samson Udama ENECHE, Department of Geography & Environmental Studies, Kogi State University, Anyigba, Nigeria. E-mail: [email protected] Received: December 23, 2018 Accepted: January 22, 2018 Online Published: May 14, 2018 doi:10.5539/enrr.v8n2p116 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/enrr.v8n2p116 Abstract Infrastructural development is considered one of the key steps towards economic advancement and prosperity, although the ecological basis of such intent is often not enshrined in the policies of governments, especially in most developing nations. Thus, infrastructural development has further increased fragmentation of ecologically-rich landscapes, causing biodiversity losses, reduced specie richness and diversity and climate change. Hence, the need for green infrastructure development. This study made use of Geographic Information System (GIS) tool to explore areas with high Ecological Connectivity Index (ECI) that could (easily) support green infrastructure development in Kaduna State in the face of climate change impacts which is already ravaging the region. Kaduna State land use/cover map and Aster GDTM elevation data were acquired, processed and analyzed using ArcGIS 10.5 software. A spatial model was developed that made use of the combination of elevation, slope and land use/cover data of the State via Multi-Criteria Evaluation (MCE) to reveal potentially viable and ecologically-rich areas of the State and the most efficient links between such areas.
