Toluwanisings' Family Demands Burial Delay for Death Probe

The family of the late gospel artist Bayonle Bolaji Olayemi, known as Toluwanisings, is seeking to postpone his burial, originally planned for this week, to investigate the cause of his death. Toluwanisings passed away on October 14, and emotions are high due to his rising fame.

A service of songs is scheduled for October 27, but the burial date has not been publicly announced. Conflicts have emerged between his wife and his parents regarding the burial location; his wife prefers a cemetery or church-owned site, while his father wishes for him to be buried at home or in his village, where his mother is interred.

Comrade Lawal Ademola Rauf, Toluwanisings' uncle, stated that the family unanimously agrees to postpone the burial and demands a full investigation into his death. He called on the government, Nigerians, and religious leaders to ensure a thorough probe before any burial takes place.
