I must admit that my connection to Isa Wali is rather tenuous. You could count him in the same front seat as Aminu Kano, Sa'adu Zungur and Abubakar Imam. He had more or less the same background as Aminu Kano his cousin. I will give you Sardauna's reaction and other anecdotes on the life of Isa Wali if you keep a date with this page next week. Arewa House, Kaduna, and Mambayya House, Kano, the two research centres I mostly frequent, are uniquely placed to undertake such an assignment if they are adequately supported.
