Muhammadu Hodi dan Suleimana (died 1826), also known as Muhammadu Fodi, was a ruler of the Hausa kingdom of Kebbi, from 1803 to 1826. He became Sarkin Kebbi (king of Kebbi) after seizing from his younger brother Umar Ukar in 1803. Two years later, the jihadists of Sokoto besieged and captured his capital, Birnin Kebbi. Hodi escaped and, for the remainder of his reign, he remained the leading figure in Kebbi's resistance against the Sokoto jihadists. After his death in 1826, his brother Samaila established the Argungu Emirate as the new center of Kebbi resistance.
