The daughter of the Alake of Abeokuta, a King in the southern region of Nigeria. Omo-Oba Adenrele Ademola arrived in Britain in 1935 and started her training as a midwife.

She balanced her role as a princess with the demands of her professional nursing career. Balancing royal social events in Britain with a nursing career that spanned 30 years. However, records of her life bear little significance in British archives. We'll discuss why that is and the significance of her life regarding empire, Britain's historical memory and the place of Black women in British history.
