Abstract: | Some considerations on the position, influence and functions of 'chiefs'. Besides the well established chieftaincies whose functions and status are clear, there are also areas in the Region where the position is not clear. The government therefore appointed a one-man commission in the person of Mr.G.I.JONES of Cambridge university to investigate the problem. |
