Toluwanisings suddenly slumped
Babadunni, who identified himself as the late singer’s personal assistant, said he arrived after being informed of the incident.
“There was nothing wrong with him. He was very fine and in perfect condition. He just slumped,” he said.
He explained that people around the singer attempted to resuscitate him before efforts began to secure medical attention.
The PA said the team took ToluwaniSings to several hospitals in Ibadan, Oyo State, in a desperate attempt to get him treated.
However, he alleged that some facilities gave excuses, including that doctors were unavailable because of an ongoing strike, while others did not admit the singer.
“We took him to up to seven to eight hospitals in Ibadan, but God said his time was up,” Babadunni said.
Toluwanisings' family to decide on next steps
Toluwanisings, whose real name was Olayemi Bayonile Bolaji, died on Wednesday, October 14. He was known for gospel songs including A Very Big God and Onibuore.
Babadunni said the singer’s body had been taken to a mortuary and that the family would determine the next steps after consultations.
He added that the family members were still managing the loss and had yet to conclude arrangements.

"The number of preventable deaths in Nigeria every day baffles me!!! So many people have died who might still be alive if they lived in a different country. It’s painful."
@ikponmwosaye noted:
"How can he say doctors are on strike in Ibadan? Were the hospitals they rushed Toluwasings to private or govt? The reason all the hospitals rejected him must have been that he was BID (brought in dead) This guy's careless talk shows that their carelessness killed Toluwasings"
