The Nigerian gospel music family is once again draped in sorrow as news breaks of the passing of one of its own. Olayemi Bayonile Bolaji, the anointed voice many knew and loved as Toluwanisings, has gone to be with the Lord.
His management confirmed the heartbreaking news through an official statement released on his page, sending shockwaves across the gospel music community and beyond.
A Voice That Carried a Message
Toluwanisings was more than just a musician — he was a vessel through whom many Nigerians encountered the power of worship and praise. His name alone, “Toluwa ni sings” — meaning “God’s own sings” in Yoruba — spoke volumes about his identity and purpose in ministry.
The Gospel Community Mourns
News of his passing has left fans, fellow ministers of the gospel, and the broader Nigerian Christian community in deep grief. In a nation where gospel music serves as the heartbeat of faith for millions — from the pews of Lagos megachurches to the modest fellowship halls across the six geopolitical zones — losing a voice like his is felt profoundly.
Rest Well, Soldier of the Cross
As Nigerians process this painful loss, many have taken to social media to share fond memories, favourite songs, and heartfelt tributes to the artiste.
To his family, friends, management, and everyone who was touched by his ministry — our thoughts and prayers are with you during this incredibly difficult time.
Adieu, Toluwanisings. The songs you sang will continue to echo in the hearts of all who knew you.
