Anthony Joshua, the former world heavyweight boxing champion, has publicly addressed the tragic car accident that took the lives of two of his close friends and team members. The accident, which occurred on December 29 along the Lagos–Ibadan Expressway, resulted in the deaths of Sina Ghami and Latif “Latz” Ayodele, while Joshua himself sustained minor injuries.
In his first social media post following the incident, Joshua shared a heartfelt message and a photograph of himself with the families of the deceased, captioning it, “My Brother’s Keeper.” This poignant gesture reflects Joshua’s support during a difficult time for the bereaved families.
The accident happened when Joshua’s SUV, carrying him and three others, collided with a stationary truck due to brake failure. Remarkably, Joshua had switched seats just before the crash, a decision that likely saved his life.
Having received treatment for a leg fracture, Joshua was discharged from the hospital on New Year’s Eve and later returned to the UK. Sina and Latz were scheduled to be laid to rest soon after his tribute.
Joshua’s post garnered attention across social media platforms, highlighting not only his bond with the victims but also the profound impact this tragedy has had on him.
