His father was Oba Ado and his siblings were Erelu Kuti and Oba Gabaro, whom he succeeded.[1] According to the Justice J. O. Kassim tribunal of inquiry report of 19 September 1978, there are six recognised sons of Akinsemoyin, namely, Sadeko, Amore/Olukokun, Abisako, Jolasun, Gbosebi and Aina Egbe.[2] The following are some of the prominent descendants of Akinsemoyin's daughters: Onisiwo, Oniru, Oluwa, and Akogun.[4][3][4] Exile in Badagry under Oba Gabaro's reign and commercial activitiesAkinsemoyin had a disagreement with his brother, Oba Gabaro over installation of Olofin's descendants as chiefs, resulting in Akinsemoyin's banishment to Badagry. At Badagry, Akinsemoyin was exposed to commerce and built relationships with European slave traders.[5] Ascendancy and introduction of slavery to LagosWhen Gabaro died, Akinsemoyin became Oba around 1760[1] despite Gabaro having a son, Eletu Kekere or in some accounts Eletu Omo.[6] Akinsemoyin established the slave trade in Lagos by inviting Portuguese and Brazilian slave merchants whom he had met in exile at Badagry.[7] Historian J. F. Ade Ajayi asserted that Akinsemoyin granted a monopoly on slave trade to his Brazilian and Portuguese trading partners. Lagos, in time, overtook the ports of Whydah and Porto Novo as the leading slave port in the Bight of Benin.[1] Under Akinsemoyin's reign, Iga Idunganran was for the first time covered with tiles, reportedly presented as gifts by Portuguese slave merchants.[8] DeathAkinsemoyin died in 1775. Though he had 4 sons, was succeeded as Oba by Eletu Kekere, Gabaro's son.[6][1] LegacyOf Oba Ado's 3 children - Gabaro, Akinsemoyin, and Erelu Kuti, only Akinsemoyin's lineage has so far failed to produce an Oba of Lagos. Apart from Gabaro's son, Eletu Kekere, all other Obas have been direct descendants of Erelu Kuti starting with Ologun Kutere. This "apparent irregularity"[2] is now the subject of controversy and litigation as Akinsemoyin's descendants are challenging the enthronement of the current Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, in court.[9] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite book|last1=Mann|first1=Kristin|title=Slavery and the Birth of an African City: Lagos, 1760-1900|publisher=Indiana University Press, 2007|isbn=9780253348845|page=45}} {{Obas of Lagos}}{{Lagos-stub}}{{Africa-royal-stub|state=collapsed}}2. ^1 2 {{cite book|last1=Osuntokun|first1=Akinjide|title=History of the Peoples of Lagos State|publisher=Lantern Books, 1987|isbn=9789782281487|pages=44}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Chief Yesufu Abiodun Oniru|url=https://m.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1855025238107268&id=1842100499399742&substory_index=0}} 4. ^{{cite book|author=Rufus T.
