She attended primary school and girls’ secondary school in Kano and Kaduna State. Thereafter she attended classes at Bayero University in Kano, where she received a degree in Islamic Studies. While she initially wanted to be a journalist, in 1983 she was encouraged to take education courses at the tertiary level in order to serve as a principal in girls’ secondary schools in Kano State. While other women had served in this position, there has been no women from Kano State who had done so. She has subsequently worked under the Kano State Ministry of Education, serving as school principal in several girls’ secondary schools in Kano State. Her experiences as a principal and teacher in these schools has enabled her to support girl child education in the state and she has encouraged women students to complete their secondary school education and to continue on to postgraduate education. She sees herself as a woman-activist in her advocacy of women’s education and has been gratified to see many of her former students working as medical doctors, lawyers, and politicians.

  • Societal Responses to the State of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) in Kano

All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Societal Responses to the State of Orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) in Kano Metropolis- Nigeria by MUSTAPHA HASHIM KURFI has been approved for the Center for International Studies by Steve Howard Professor of African Studies Steve Howard Director, African Studies Daniel Weiner Executive Director, Center for International Studies 3 ABSTRACT KURFI, MUSTAPHA HASHIM, M.A., June 2010, African Studies Societal Responses to the State of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) in Kano Metropolis- Nigeria (131 pp.) Director of Thesis: Steve Howard This study uses qualitative methodology to examine the contributions of Non- Governmental Organizations in response to the conditions of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) in Kano metropolis. The study investigates what these organizations do, what methods, techniques, and strategies they employ to identify the causes of OVC’s conditions for intervention. The study acknowledges colonization, globalization, poverty, illiteracy, and individualism as contributing factors to OVC’s conditions. However, essentially, the study identifies gross misunderstanding between paternal and maternal relatives of children to be the main factor responsible for the OVC’s conditions. This social disorganization puts the children in difficult conditions including exposure to health, educational, moral, emotional, psychological, and social problems. The thesis concludes that through “collective efficacy” the studied organizations are a perfect means for solving-problem.

  • Non-Timber Forest Products and Their Contribution to Households Income
    Suleiman et al. Ecological Processes (2017) 6:23 DOI 10.1186/s13717-017-0090-8 RESEARCH Open Access Non-timber forest products and their contribution to households income around Falgore Game Reserve in Kano, Nigeria Muhammad Sabiu Suleiman1*, Vivian Oliver Wasonga1, Judith Syombua Mbau1, Aminu Suleiman2 and Yazan Ahmed Elhadi1 Abstract Introduction: In the recent decades, there has been growing interest in the contribution of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) to livelihoods, development, and poverty alleviation among the rural populace. This has been prompted by the fact that communities living adjacent to forest reserves rely to a great extent on the NTFPs for their livelihoods, and therefore any effort to conserve such resources should as a prerequisite understand how the host communities interact with them. Methods: Multistage sampling technique was used for the study. A representative sample of 400 households was used to explore the utilization of NTFPs and their contribution to households’ income in communities proximate to Falgore Game Reserve (FGR) in Kano State, Nigeria. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze and summarize the data collected. Results: The findings reveal that communities proximate to FGR mostly rely on the reserve for firewood, medicinal herbs, fodder, and fruit nuts for household use and sales. Income from NTFPs accounts for 20–60% of the total income of most (68%) of the sampled households. The utilization of NTFPs was significantly influenced by age, sex, household size, main occupation, distance to forest and market. Conclusions: The findings suggest that NTFPs play an important role in supporting livelihoods, and therefore provide an important safety net for households throughout the year particularly during periods of hardship occasioned by drought.
