Comedian and preacher Woli Arole has appealed to those involved in the burial dispute surrounding late gospel singer Olayemi Bayonile Bolaji, popularly known as Toluwanisings, to allow him a befitting burial, urging them to end what he described as unnecessary public arguments.<\/p>\n

\n

Arole made the appeal in a video shared on Instagram on Monday, describing the late singer as a great talent whose death had left friends and colleagues grieving.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI want to speak on behalf of Toluwanisings\u2019 demise, and this is what God asked me to say. We\u2019ve lost a great guy, a great gift to a generation. Even we, his friends and colleagues, have not recovered. For some of us, he is so close to us, and his death is really painful. A big elephant has gone,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\n

He also criticised people he accused of using the controversy to attract attention on social media, saying public discussion should instead focus on Toluwanisings\u2019 wife and children.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s saddening and sad that a lot of people are now beginning to want to start to use it as a means for social media traction. You are m***. I have a right to say it. A young man had died in almost his prime, and the discussion is not even about the wife left behind and two kids? No. What you want to start doing is unlicensed, ungoverned, unnecessary talk, interviews and nonsense. A lot of people speaking about him this way never spoke about him while he was alive, about his music, please, please,\u201d Arole said.<\/p>\n

\n

He urged those involved to let the burial arrangements proceed and allow the singer to be laid to rest with dignity.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThis is why it is a burden in my spirit, and I have to speak, and this is what the Lord is laying in my heart. The Bible says: Let the dead bury their dead. Whatever process, anything that needs to be done within that corner, let it be done. Let the young man be given a befitting burial,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
