Gospel singer ToluwaniSings dies after hospital struggles

ToluwaniSings, whose real name was Olayemi Bayonile Bolaji, passed away on October 14, 2026, after suddenly slumping. His personal assistant, Babadunni Olayemi, stated that the singer was taken to between seven and eight hospitals in Ibadan, Oyo State, but was not admitted due to various excuses, including the unavailability of doctors because of an ongoing strike.

Babadunni mentioned that ToluwaniSings had performed at a worship event the day before his death and appeared to be in good health prior to the incident. Despite efforts to resuscitate him and prayers, the attempts were unsuccessful.

Following his death, the singer's body was taken to a mortuary, and the family was set to discuss the next steps regarding his remains. ToluwaniSings was known for his gospel songs, including "A Very Big God" and "Onibuore," and had built a significant following among worshippers.
