Toluwanisings: Emotional video as late gospel singer’s body lies in open white casket

Toluwanisings, born Olayemi Bayonile Bolaji, died on October 14, 2026, after collapsing.

He was laid to rest on November 9, 2026, at his residence in Ibadan, following a prolonged dispute between his widow and his father, Muniru Olayemi, over the burial location.

The singer's father had expressed a preference for interment either at the Ibadan home his son had built or alongside his late wife in Ikirun.

His daughter-in-law objected to burial at the family home. Oyo State Police eventually stepped in to broker an agreement, allowing the funeral to go ahead.

The timing of the construction activity caught public attention partly because earlier videos had drawn focus to the conditions in which the singer's father had been living in a single room.

It had also been noted within family circles that Toluwanisings had expressed intentions to complete a home for his father but was unable to fulfil that wish before his passing.
