Hi Ian,
Thank you but the thank has to go to our member Wodimi, he is the owner of a great research site: *******************************gallery?...word-and-knife
I only have seen that the Hausa attribution was not correct and have searched a little bit on his site and found that the Mandara attribution seems to be correct.

Regards,
Detlef
