Without training in carpentry, he built a box guitar with some strings on it and this was how Moses Adeolu Akisanya invented Agidigbo. Adeolu formed a band called “Rancho Boys Orchestra” which was disbanded in 1952. He organized another band in 1953 and named it “Rio Lindo Orchestra” which was strictly an Agidigbo band. He later formed the Western Toppers band stationed in Western Hotel, Idi Oro, Mushin, Lagos. Adeolu to his contemporaries and fans on the music scene was seen as the chief moral crusader of his time. A talented composer and satirist, Akisanya in some of his popular numbers lambasted the fairer sex for their materialistic tendencies and unabated love for worthless fad. Some of his sarcastic compositions, which later became hit numbers, include ‘Bonfo, Acada (an arrogant educated man), Awon Aboju Bora’. An unrepentant social critic and commentator till the end Akisanya once summed up his philosophy of life thus ” when I criticize women in my compositions I don’t aim at them but rather I condemn some unruly behavior displayed by some of them, like the idea of wig is dirty, unnatural and anti-social. I am a moralist and I will criticize anything even if not women. The Master composer and philosopher died on the 2nd November 1987.
