A STATEMENT ON AY LIVE CARDIFF
To everyone who bought tickets and came out to see us in Cardiff, I sincerely apologise for the disappointment you experienced. Your time, money and support deserve respect.
My fellow comedians and I travelled to Cardiff to perform and eventually entered the venue. Unfortunately, unresolved payment commitments delayed our appearance, and by the time we arrived at the hall, most of the audience had left.
You deserved a properly organised show and timely information. You should never have been caught in the middle of a payment dispute.
In this video, I explain the circumstances directly. I respectfully ask that you listen to the full account before drawing conclusions.
I am calling on the organisers and our UK tour management to provide a clear resolution for ticket holders, including refund information. Verified updates will be shared through my official channels.
Birmingham — 30 October
London — 31 October
Manchester — 1 November
These shows remain scheduled, and we look forward to welcoming you.
For over twenty years, your support has helped build this brand. I value that trust and remain committed to honouring it.

This is Toluwanisings.
Before you knew his praise, he was Alfa Sodiq.
Born into a Muslim family in Ikirun. Fuji singer on the streets. No microphone, no stage, just a dream.
He moved to Lagos with nothing. Studied Estate Management at YABATECH. But after class, he would run to Christ Apostolic Church to coordinate the choir. That's where God found his voice.
For 12 YEARS, he sang to empty rooms.
In 2021, he posted a song on Instagram. 500 followers. No likes. He almost deleted it.
The next morning, Woli Arole DM'd him: "Who are you? Guy, you are GOOD. I will post your song this week."
That one post changed everything.
Mike Abdul shared it. Bidemi Olaoba shared it. Big Bolaji shared it. Suddenly, the boy who sang Fuji was leading praise for millions.
He didn't become a celebrity. He became a MINISTER.
He created TOGOMM - Toluwani Gospel Music Ministry. Songs like Emi Mimo Ese, Unreserved Praise, Agbara Olorun - he fused that Fuji energy into Holy Ghost praise. You couldn't stand still when he sang.
He married Itohan, the woman who stood with him for 20 years when he had nothing. They had two daughters. He always said, "My wife is my pillar."
In July 2026, he escaped death.
His team vehicle hit a trailer on his way back from ministration. He came online shaking, saying, "Divine intervention saved us." We all said "Thank God."
We didn't know God was preserving him for just 3 more months.
October 13, 2026. Ibadan. He was on fire at Bidemi Olaoba's In His Presence program. Jumping, sweating, shouting Emi Mimo Ese. His last ministration. No one knew.
He got home, told his wife "I'm tired." He slumped. October 14, 2026. 41 years old. Gone.
A man who survived a trailer accident in July, left us in October after saying he was tired.
But hear this: He didn't live long. He lived DEEP.
He proved that you can start as Sodiq the Fuji boy and end as Toluwanisings the man who made millions shout Jesus.
He proved that Estate Management certificate can stay in the drawer when your calling is on the altar.
He proved that 500 followers is not the end, when God is your promoter.
Some people wait for perfect conditions to serve God. He served with nothing and God gave him everything.
His praise will continue to bless us even after he is gone. I will keep sharing his ministrations because testimonies like his deserve to be remembered.
I saved his testimony here because it is proof that God can rewrite any man's story. From Sodiq the Fuji boy to a voice that filled churches.
I have had Unreserved Praise on repeat since yesterday. Which of his songs carried you through a hard season? I am reading every tribute tonight.
