The burial took place in a solemn ceremony attended by an intimate gathering of guests, with restricted access to the site. Security personnel guarded the location, and media representatives were barred from the scene. After being transported to his home, the late artist's remains received a final viewing before being interred. Conflicting opinions over Toluwanisings' final resting place had sparked weeks of public debate, after his father and widow could not agree on a burial location. The singer's father, Muniru Adekunle Olayemi, favored a burial site at the family home in Ikirun, Osun State, while his widow wished for a burial next to his mother in Ibadan.

His untimely demise drew attention after a former assistant claimed certain hospitals refused his emergency care. Surviving Toluwanisings are his wife and two daughters.",
