Lawyer and entertainment executive, Oyinkansola Fawehinmi popularly called Foza Billions has paid a glowing tribute to the late journalist with Inspiration FM, Oluwatosin Bucknor.

Fawehinmi in a post on X spoke glowingly of the impact the late on-air-pesonality had on her career before her demise.

The founder of Technological Partners described Bucknor as a "fiercely passionate who opened the door me".

She said further, "Tosyn would see me outside and introduce me to anyone around her and say meet Foza, she will be a great force in the industry, she is a lawyer. Tosyn and I got closer because I used to listen to her radio show from 7-9 am every morning and I would always send a text. Tell her the new songs she played that I liked, suggest new ones etc."

"I miss Tosyn. Tosyn’s life was a full life! Tosyn was an OAP, manager, rock artiste, poet, actor, everything. If she felt like it, she went on to achieve it.
Everytime I miss Tosyn, I am comforted that she died empty!"

Tosyn, a popular personality was found dead by her husband, Aurelien Boyer, a French national, when he arrived home in 2018. She was 37.

She was born with sickle cell anemia which prompted her to start ‘These Genes Project’ to help people with the condition.

In November 2015, Tosyn and Aurélien Boyer had their traditional wedding surrounded by family and friends in Lagos followed by a white wedding in France.

The journalist previously hosted the morning show at Top Radio FM.
