Their father was the elder of Awe Adamu Orisa cult, the most senior Eyo group in Lagos. No wonder, his son was conferred with the title of the Akinsiku of Lagos, the custodian of Eyo by Oba Rilwan Akiolu. Penultimate Friday, children of the late Albert gave their father a befitting burial in Lagos, which had over 3,000 guests in attendance. It was a party many guests looked ahead for and on the D-day, family members and friends from all walks of life gathered to pay their last respect to the late Albert Dosunmu.
All the Dosunmu brothers were up and doing at the event. The deceased had 7 sons and 2 daughters. The daughters are: Princess Olaide Jemil, who is a business woman on Lagos Island. She deals in wedding gowns and Princess Olaitan Dosunmu, who works with Okuobi Medical Centre. All the brothers are: Prince Bolaji Dosunmu, who lives in Canada, he is a system analyst.

Most Lagos big boys stepped out at the party to honour all of them.
The bereaved children were led by Akinsiku of Lagos, whom was highly praised by Kwam 1 De Ultimate the official band of the party. All the brothers looked dapper both at the wake, burial ceremony and the reception party. They wore the pink/royal blue mixed aso oke and changed to the Ankara aso ebi later for the reception.
