Gospel singer Toluwanisings, also known as Olayemi Bolaji, died in Ibadan, Oyo State, on October 14, 2026 after reportedly slumping. His personal assistant Babadunni Gbolabo alleged that several hospitals rejected efforts to provide emergency treatment for him. Toluwanisings' father Muniru Adekunle Olayemi disputed reports that his son was 44 years old at the time of his death, stating that he was actually 34.
Olayemi desired the singer to be buried in a house he had built or beside his deceased mother in Osun State, while his wife opposed the idea, suggesting a burial in a cemetery or church. A man claiming to be the singer's uncle, Lawal Ademola, called for an impartial investigation into the circumstances surrounding the singer's death.
