INTRODUCTION
1.0 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY
The research work is an extensive appraised of leadership and also to analyze the impact of leadership performance in an organization. In any organization, there are objectives, or goals to be achieved, the attainment of these goals depend largely can effect leadership. To C.A Cote (1995:46) leadership can be described as an influence the others to contribute voluntary to the achievement of groups task in a give situation. A leadership most therefore somebody who can inspire, include, motive coordinate, plan and above all be influence.
Leadership style is a key determinant of the success or failure of any organization. A leader is person who influences, directs, and motivates others to perform specific tasks and also inspire his subordinates for efficient performance towards the accomplishment of the stated corporate objectives. Leadership style is the manner and approach of providing direction, implementing plans, and motivating people. According to Ngambi et al. (2010) and Ngambi (2011), cited in Jeremy et al.(2011), leadership is a process of influencing others’ commitment towards realizing their full potential in achieving a value-added, shared vision, with passion and integrity. The nature of this influence is such that the members of the team cooperate voluntarily with each other in order to achieve the objectives which the leader has set for each member, as well as for the group. The relationships between the leader and employee, as well as the quality of employees’ performance, are significantly influenced by the leadership
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Researcher has examined leadership skills from a variety of prospective. Early analyze of leadership from the 1900s to the 1950s, differentiate between leadership and flower characteristic. Finding that no single trait or combination of traits. Fully explained leadership abilities, researcher then begin to examine the influence of the situation on leader’s skills and behaviours. Subsequent leadership studies attempted to distinguish effective from non effective leaders these studies attempted to determined which leadership behaviour where exemplified by effective leaders. To understand what contributed to making leaders effective researcher used the contingency model in examining the connection between personnel trait, and leader effectiveness. Leadership studies of the 1970’s and 1980’s once against focused on the individual characteristics of leaders which influence their effectiveness and the success of their organizations. The investigations led to the conclusion that leaders and leaderships are crucial but complex component of organizations.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
A lack of leadership is a goal thing, for business and for society, this is not a throw away statement; there is a deep scatted problems which leadership in that it is currently widely conceptualized, taught, and understand in terms of the exemplary individual and their special ability to produced enhanced organizational performance.
This approach dominate the management literature and suggestion that leaders and seen as “something different” or special. This concept is deeply flawed and has from arguably, contributed to a divorce of big business from social worth, this can lead to damage to the societies and communities in which organization operate and upon when their action and decisions impact, the failure of the banking industry is just one example.
In this organizational leadership has moved away from Adam smith notion of a naturally moderated self interest and a concern for others the result has been instability in organizations and in society as leadership approaches pull utilitarianism balance sheet and profit before social wrath.
We need to reconsider leadership and challenges its divorcee from social worth. Tom do so, we can consider without what leadership looks in organizations whose value is primarily in their far-reading social, worth, not their monetary value. There are, by definition, unconventional organizations.

1.7 HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Jigawa State created out of the old Kano State in August 1992is one of the 36 states in Federal Republic of Nigeria. The agitation for the creation of the state was led by MalamInuwa-Dutse, a former commissioner in the Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources during the governorship of late Audu Bako , the governor of old Kano State (comprising present Kano and Jigawa states). By the 1999 Constitution of Federal Republic of Nigeria, the state comprises 27 local government councils, which are divided into 30 state constituencies, grouped into 11 federal constituencies and 3 senatorial districts. These 27 local government councils were further subdivided into 77 development areas by law No. 5 of 2004 of the State House of Assembly. In line with the democratic setting in the country, the governments at both the state and local government levels are elected, and comprise an executive with a unicameral legislature. The state legislature has 30 elected members each representing one of the state constituencies.
Jigawa State is one of thirty-six states that constitute Federal Republic of Nigeria. It is situated in the northwestern part of the country between latitudes 11.00°N to 13.00°N and longitudes 8.00°E to 10.15°E. Kano State and Katsina State border Jigawa to the west, Bauchi State to the east and Yobe State to the northeast. To the north, Jigawa shares an international border with Zinder Region in The Republic of Niger , which is a unique opportunity for cross-border trading activities. The government readily took advantage of this by initiating and establishing a free trade zone at the border town of Maigatari in Niger .
Topography
The state has a total land area of approximately 22,410 square kilometres. Its topography is characterized by undulating land, with sand dunes of various sizes spanning several kilometres in parts of the State. The southern part of Jigawa comprises the basement complex while the northeast is made up of sedimentary rocks of the Chad Formation. The main rivers are Hadejia, Kafin Hausa and Iggi Rivers with a number of tributaries feeding extensive marshlands in north-eastern part of the State. Hadejia – Kafin Hausa River traverses the state from west to east through the Hadejia-Nguru wetlands and empties into the Lake Chad Basin.

This pattern of population distribution is same across various constituencies and between urban and rural areas. The 2002 CWIQ Survey indicated that 45.2% of the population was made up of young people below the age of 15; 49.0% between the ages of 15 and 59 while 5.8% were people aged 60 and above. This survey reveals a dependency ratio of almost 1; meaning that there is almost one dependent to every economically active person in the population.
