Wumi Toriola Moved to Tears at Son's Birthday Tribute

Actress and producer Wumi Toriola faced an emotional moment at her son Zion's 7th birthday party held in Lekki, Lagos, on October 17, 2026. The celebration turned poignant when a live tribute to the late gospel minister Toluwanisings, who died on October 14, 2026, at the age of 41, was performed.

Toluwanisings, known for his contributions to contemporary worship and songs like "A Very Big God" and "Unreserved Praise," passed away shortly after ministering at a worship event. His death had a significant impact on the Nigerian gospel community, prompting an outpouring of tributes.

Toriola, whose real name is Olayemi Bayonile Bolaji, had promised to make Zion's birthday memorable after a less grand celebration for his 5th birthday due to her work on the film Queen Lateefah. The event attracted several prominent Nollywood personalities, underscoring its significance.
