Oba Osinlokun or Eshinlokun (died 1819) reigned as Oba of Lagos from 1780 to 1819 . His father was Oba Ologun Kutere and his siblings were Obas Adele, Akitoye, Prince Olusi and Prince Akiolu making the Ologun Kutere Obaship line the dominant one in Lagos. Eshinlokun had sixteen children who survived him. They are in the order of seniority: Kosoko, Olufunmi, Odunsi, Ladega, Ogunbambi, Akinsanya, Ogunloye, Akimosa, Ibiyemi, Adebajo, Matimoju, Adeniyi, Isiyemi, Igbalu, Oresanya and Idewu Ojulari. Out of his children, Kosoko and Idewu-Ojulari became obas of Lagos. Idewu Ojulari was not survived by any child, thus leaving the Royal Family with 15 existing lineages.
