Arewa
House
is
the
center
for
historical
documentation
and
research
of
the
Ahmadu
Bello
University,
Zaria,
Nigeria.
Located
at
No.
1
Rabah
Road,
in
the
Residence
of
the
late
Premier
of
Northern
Nigeria,
Sir
Ahmadu
Bello
Sokoto,
Sardauna
of
Sokoto.
The
center
is
concerned,
not
only
with
research
and
documentation
of
the
history
and
culture
of
the
people,
but
also
with
contemporary
studies
on
Policy,
Peace
and
Leadership.
The
aim
of
the
House
therefore
is
to
serve
as
a
center
for
documentation
and
research
in
history
and
contemporary
challenges.
Though
under
the
authority
of
Ahmadu
Bello
University
Zaria,
Arewa
House
has
an
independent
Board
of
Trustees
and
Governing
Council.
It
is
headed
by
an
executive
Director,
who
runs
the
day-to-day
activities
of
the
House.
As
a
center
for
historical
documentation
and
research,
Arewa
House
is
concerned
with
procuring,
preserving,
analyzing
and
discussing
issues
of
national
and
International
interest
and
in
particular
with
issues
of
specific
interest
to
the
development
of
northern
Nigeria.
The
history
of
Arewa
House
as
a
Center
for
Research
and
Historical
Documentation
goes
back
to
the
year
1970
when
the
“History
of
Northern
Nigerian
Committee”
was
given
the
responsibility
of
writing
a
book
on
the
history
of
northern
Nigeria.
This
was
after
the
dissolution
of
the
three
regional
governments
in
the
country
and
the
creation
of
twelve
states,
which
also
led
to
the
establishment
of
the
“Joint
Interim
Common
Services
Agency”
(ICSA)
to
oversee
the
joint
assets
and
liabilities
of
the
six
newly
created
northern
states.
It
was
in
this
respect
that
the
residence
of
the
late
premier
of
the
Northern
region,
Sir
Ahmadu
Bello
Sardauna,
was
formally
approved
to
serve
as
an
office
for
this
project
with
the
name
“Arewa
House”.
