She added that Taye later collected an extra £6,500 from the late singer's friends, including Lanre Alewilese, bringing the total contributions from that circle to N6 million.
What Yinka TNT said about Taye's Choices
According to Yinka TNT, Taye was already a graduate of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) in Nigeria before he travelled abroad, and those around him advised him to pursue a one-year master's programme.
Instead, Taye chose to start a fresh undergraduate programme in an AI-related course, a decision she described as needlessly costly given that his parents are not in a position to fund his education.

She pointed out that despite the significant sums Toluwanisings was channeling towards Taye's education, the late singer still managed to purchase a car, while Taye's parents were simultaneously requesting a tricycle from him. Yinka TNT said she is waiting until 22 November, the date Taye allegedly committed to repaying the money, and vowed to act if the repayment does not come through.
