Notes

1. Alaji Ɗawra, June 2011.

2. For a similar situation among the Tuareg in Northern Mali and Niger, see Grémont (2011: 183), and among the Woɗaaɓe in central Niger, see Boesen (2009: 78).

3. Tuuɗi Abdulaye, December 2010.

4. Witnessed in Abdenaser, Damergou region, October 2011.

5. On the history of decentralization in Niger, see Salifou (2008).

6. Information confirmed by Nano Buuyo (December 2011).

7. For a transcription of the complete account, see Köhler (2017a: text 11).

8. Guntu Ɗawra, January 2014.

9. Amadou Siddo, personal communication, February 2011.

10. Gorjo Riima, Woɗaaɓe Suudu Suka’el Diffa, personal communication, January 2011.

11. In the Fulfulde of the study group, ‘ngandi’ translates as ‘hatred’ rather than as ‘wickedness’. The attitude of trying to prevent the advancement of others would in general rather be grasped with the concepts nawta or kiisi (‘envy’, ‘jealousy’).

12. In this regard, the ideologies of development, when offered to the Woɗaaɓe, often suffer the same fate as religious ideologies. On the opportunistic embracing of Christian missionary efforts comprising a relief component by Woɗaaɓe in the 1970s, see Paris (1981).

13. See Herskovits’ (1926) ‘cattle complex theory’ and its discussions in the literature on pastoralism (e.g. Bonte and Galaty 1991: 9f.).
