There are two _categories of Hausa communities: those within Hausaland and those outside it. While much has been published on. the Hausa people in their traditional homeland, only little is known about those in the diaspora. This work 1s concentrated on the Hausa emigrants outside the traditional Hausaland, specifically in the Yoruba country southwest of Hausaland. The focus of study is· lbadan, the largest Yoruba settlement. Oral and documentary material have been used in the study~ These have shown that the presence of the Hausa people in I badan can be dated to the early nineteenth century when the city itself
was fourded. The immigrants have exploited their exclusive ethnic flexibility .and cultural unity woven around· the Islamic religion to impose upon some parts of lbadan a migrant culture. They have a major quarter at Sabongari (Sabo),. a livestock market ( Kara) at Bodija, kolanut depot at Oja'ba and a pepper /onions market .at Sasa. This study which readily complements· others done on the city of lbadan and on Hausa migration, seeks to examine how the Hausa emigrants came to the city of lbadan, how they were received into it, their initial problems and challenges, how these were surmounted and how Sabo and the other Hausa settlements and markets in lbadan were established.
