The Three Great emperors of Songhai were actually Two Great emperors of Songhai, which were Sunni Ali and Askia the Great. You could actually consider Musa another Great emperor of Songhai, since he made his father, Askia the Great, leave the throne because Askia the Great became blind, and Musa reigned after him, and then then empire of Songhai collapsed.
