Chapter 1: Masudo's Arrival in llorin: A Warrior's Journey Begins
In the early 18th century, a courageous warrior named Masudo embarked on a transformative journey that would leave an indelible mark on the history of llorin. Hailing from Sokoto, Masudo set foot in llorin, a land ripe with possibilities and challenges, and began a new chapter in his life.
Masudo's arrival in llorin was not a mere coincidence; it was driven by a profound purpose. He had come to support Sheikh Alimi, a prominent Jihadist from Sokoto who was leading a movement to spread Islam and establish a new order. Masudo's allegiance to the cause was unwavering, and he became an invaluable asset in Sheikh Alimi's mission.
As Masudo settled in the vibrant Oke suna quarters of llorin, he quickly became an integral part of the community. Known for his strength, valor, and unwavering dedication, he earned the respect and admiration of both the Fulani warriors and the Islamic clerics from Sokoto who had also joined the cause. Among his comrades were notable figures like Belgore, Joromana, and Bijowuro, each playing a significant role in the battles and conquests that lay ahead.
Masudo's involvement in the wars against the Yoruba warriors from the Oyo empire showcased his military prowess and strategic brilliance. Alongside his fellow warriors, he fought with determination and courage, ensuring that the voices of Sheikh Alimi and the Sokoto movement were heard loud and clear. The captives captured during these battles found solace in Masudo Etile, a settlement established by Masudo on lands now occupied by the University of llorin permanent site.
Over time, Masudo's influence grew, and his lands became the subject of government acquisition in 1977 for the establishment of the University of llorin's permanent site. The family of Masudo received rightful compensation for their contribution to the cause. Today, a fragment of Masudo Etile remains at the entrance to the University gate, serving as a reminder of the legacy forged by Masudo and his descendants.
Masudo's indomitable spirit led him to further endeavors. He participated in the Orimope war, settling his slaves at Masudo Omotori ogun in Kwara State. In llorin, Masudo built his huts at Okesuna, and interestingly, two of these huts were designated for important roles during the colonial era. Bisala, the Emir's interpreter, and Bello, the Emir's driver, utilized these huts under the instruction of the ruling Emir, highlighting Masudo's lasting influence even in administrative matters.
Not content with his achievements in llorin, Masudo's journey led him to expand further into Igbominaland. It was there that he established a new settlement, now known as Masudo, near Igbaja. With his unwavering commitment and leadership qualities, Masudo became the first Alangua, administering his territory and collecting fief (Isakole) from the settlements under his domain.
After Masudo's passing at the age of 86, his sons took up the mantle of leadership. Abubakar, the eldest, succeeded him, followed by Buhari, and later Muhammed. Succession became a tradition within the family, passing from generation to generation. Each ruler brought their unique vision and contributed to the growth and stability of Masudoland.
