The Ghanaian content creator was laid to rest on October 4, 2025, in a white coffin with Barcelona stickers.
It was one of the late TikToker's wishes to be sent off with his favourite team, Barcelona's emblem.
Osanju was a staunch Barcelona supporter. His last post on social media before his demise on September 1 was a video of him watching Barcelona's draw game with Rayo Vallecano the night before.
In the video, Osanju was furious about the game and its scoreline. Early reports, which came after his death, suggested that Barcelona's draw game led to his death.
However, his family members debunked the rumours and established his cause of death to be cancer.
Osanju was loved by many. His funeral, held in Atwima Koforidua in the Ashanti Region, drew hundreds of people to his hometown.
