Osanju speaks about death
After Osanju's mother’s death, the TikTok star addressed her loss in an interview.
He said that while he was mourning, he was not feeling as grief-stricken as people expected him to be.
Osanju said that was because of his belief about death, which he saw as a state of peace.
“When I saw my mother was dead, I saw it as her being more at ease than myself, who is alive. My study of the bible has taught me that when someone dies, it is as if they are asleep. When someone dies, that person ceases to exist. You go back to the state you were in before you were born, you don't feel anything, you don't feel pain,” he said.
The TikToker also spoke about how he would like to pass and how his family should handle his burial.
Osanju’s mature words about death have resurfaced following his tragic passing, sparking conversations on social media.
