The family dispute surrounding the late gospel singer, Olayemi Bayonile Bolaji, popularly known as Toluwanisings, has taken a dramatic turn, sparking widespread reactions on social media.

Nollywood actress, Mercy Aigbe has blamed the media, particularly bloggers, for fuelling the conflict between the late singer’s bereaved wife and his family. She said the parties should be allowed to grieve in peace.

The actress voiced her concerns in an Instagram post, condemning bloggers for allegedly exploiting the family’s grief to generate online engagement.

She wrote: “Have we lost our sense of humanity? What happened to compassion?

“A young man has died in his prime, leaving behind a grieving wife and two very young children.

“At a time when this family should be allowed to grieve in peace, clout-chasing bloggers are conducting interviews that only seem to fuel the conflict between the bereaved wife and her husband’s family.

“Must everything become content? Must every family disagreement become public entertainment?

“A woman has just lost her husband. Two children have lost their father. Whatever disagreements exist, can we allow this family some dignity and privacy to navigate their grief?

“Not every situation needs a microphone. Not every conflict needs an audience. And not every tragedy should become an opportunity for engagement.

“Sometimes, the most humane thing you can do is put the camera down!”
