It was gathered that access to the late singer’s resting place was restricted as the funeral was conducted away from public glare.
The atmosphere around the residence was unusually quiet, as even neighbours were not seen around the area, giving the impression of a tightly private burial.
Security personnel were also present at the venue, while media access to the singer’s resting place was restricted.
The singer’s remains were first transported from the burial service to his house, where a final viewing was held before he was finally laid to rest.
The ceremony followed weeks of public controversy over his final resting place, after his father, Muniru Adekunle Olayemi, and his widow reportedly disagreed over where he should be buried.
His father had initially expressed a preference for burying him in the house he built or beside his late mother in Ikirun, Osun State.
The disagreement prompted calls for intervention, with the Oyo State Police Command earlier disclosing that the parties involved had signed a peace undertaking.
Recall that Toluwanisings died in Ibadan on October 14, 2026, after reportedly slumping.
His sudden death generated public concern following allegations by his personal assistant, Babadunni Gbolabo, that several hospitals declined to admit him while efforts were being made to obtain emergency medical attention.
The singer is survived by his wife and two daughters.
