The controversy surrounding the death and aftermath of gospel singer, Olayemi Bayonle Bolaji known as Toluwanisings continues as the Oyo State Police Command has arrested and arranged arraigned two people for the roles they played in the controversy, reports thegazellenews.com
Thegazellenews.com reports further that the two suspects were arraigned separately by the police over alleged desecration of his corpse, false publications and defamatory social media content.
The suspects: Prophet Moses Idowu and Oladapo Joshua Dunmininu, were separately arraigned following investigations into videos and online publications containing unsubstantiated allegations against the deceased’s wife, family members and associates.
A statement issued by the Police Public Relations Officer, Olayinka Ayanlade, said Prophet Idowu was arrested after allegedly visiting a morgue where Toluwanisings’ corpse was kept, claiming he possessed spiritual powers to resurrect the deceased.
The police said he recorded the body on video and shared it on social media without the family’s permission. The police also said he accused the wife, Mrs Olayemi Elizabeth Damilola, and the manager of causing the singer’s death, without proof.
He was arraigned on four counts, and the court ordered him to be kept at the Correctional Centre. The case will continue on December 2, 2026.
The second person arraigned is Oladapo Joshua Dunminimnun, who was arraigned for allegedly making and sharing videos accusing the Personal Assistant and members of the family of causing the death of the singer, even after the peace undertaking that was signed on Tuesday, 3 November, 2026 and after warnings from the family and the police.
He was arraigned on November 13 on charges of false news on Facebook, defamation, and conduct likely to cause a breach of the peace. His case will continue on December 11, 2026.
