\nThe Emergence of Oba Ibrahim Agbana Agie with the support of the Colonial Master influenced his acceptance of Colonial village reorganisation exercise in Isanlu kingdom.
\nThe settlement pattern of Isanlu kingdom which was championed by Oba Ibrahim Agbana Agie led to the emergence of the new Isanlu kingdom
\nThe relationship between the old villages and the modern ones became cordial and brought development to Isanlu kingdom
\nThe urge to move from the village to the place where social amenities were provided by government and the Community led to the desolation of some villages.
