In a development that is set to bring closure to the family, friends, and fans of the late gospel singer, Toluwanisings, his widow, Damilola Olayemi, has reportedly agreed to the burial of her husband at his ancestral home in Ogun State. According to a report by Daily Post Nigeria, this decision follows pressure from various quarters, especially the singer’s fans, who have been advocating for the burial to take place at the family’s ancestral home.
