Former world heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua has made his first social media post since a fatal car accident in Nigeria that claimed the lives of two close friends and team members.

Joshua sustained minor injuries in the incident that killed his friends, Sina Ghami and Latif “Latz” Ayodele, on Monday, December 29, on the Lagos–Ibadan Expressway.

The 36-year-old boxer, who was discharged from the hospital on New Year’s Eve, returned to the United Kingdom on Saturday.

He made his first public comment since the accident in a post across his social media handles on Sunday.

Both Sina and Latz will be laid to rest later on Sunday (today).

The accident occurred when Joshua’s SUV, carrying the boxer and three others, collided with a stationary truck due to reported brake failure.

Joshua, who had just arrived in Nigeria for a holiday following his recent knockout victory over Jake Paul, narrowly escaped death after switching from the front passenger seat to the back moments before the impact, a move prompted by his size obstructing the driver’s view.

He sustained a leg fracture but was reported to be in stable condition without needing emergency medical intervention.

The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Olohundare Jimoh, has ordered the State Criminal Investigation Department, Panti, to probe multiple sexual allegations levelled against the Senior Pastor of the Mountain of Liberation and Miracles Ministries, Chris Okafor.

The order comes amid growing outrage generated by the viral allegations circulating on social media in recent days.

It was earlier reported that the popular cleric stepped down from pastoral duties on New Year’s Day as the allegations escalated, with several women, including Nollywood actress Doris Ogala, coming forward with different narrations against him.

The cleric had last Sunday publicly apologised to Ogala during a church service, where he knelt on the pulpit, admitted to past “mistakes,” and sought forgiveness.

The development follows his wedding to a new bride, identified simply as Pearl, on December 16, 2025, an event attended by prominent clerics.

The spokesperson for the Lagos State Police Command, Abimbola Adebisi, had on Friday told our correspondent that the police could not arrest the embattled pastor because there was no formal petition from any of the alleged victims.

Adebisi said she was not aware of any complaints against Okafor, despite the swirling allegations on social media.

However, following a renewed request by our correspondent on Saturday night, including text messages sent to the commissioner, the police spokesperson on Sunday said the CP had ordered the SCID to invite the cleric for questioning and summon the alleged victims for interviews.

“The CP has directed the SCID to invite the pastor for investigation, despite the fact that no one has formally come forward to report,” the Lagos PPRO told PUNCH Online.

She added that the CP also ordered that witnesses be brought forward to provide statements that would assist the investigation.

Adebisi further disclosed that, on her personal initiative, she had reached out to one of the YouTubers who interviewed the alleged victims to obtain direct links to the witnesses.

The flurry of allegations against the cleric began on December 14 when actress Ogala posted several emotional videos on her Instagram page.

In the clips, she accused the pastor of having a sexual relationship with her, which allegedly began in 2017 and lasted for nine years.

The actress said the cleric promised her marriage on several occasions before marrying another woman in December 2025.

In the videos, she also accused Okafor of sharing her explicit photos and videos.

She further alleged that the pastor contributed to the breakdown of her previous marriage and caused her emotional distress and financial loss.

Ogala also shared some bedroom photos and screenshots of conversations, alongside videos in which she claimed the pastor sent her $10,000 to retract her statements and allege that a rival pastor orchestrated the accusations.

She later demanded N1bn in damages through a legal notice filed by her lawyers, alleging threats and intimidation following her arrest and detention by the police.

As the scandal escalated, other women also came forward with allegations of sexual misconduct, manipulation, infidelity, and related issues against the pastor.

One of them was his former wife, Bessem Okafor, who accused him of infidelity, deception, and physical assault.

However, in separate interviews with Saturday PUNCH, several members of the church dismissed the allegations, describing them as desperate attempts by individuals seeking to extort money from their “man of God.”

The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Adron Group, Aare Adetola Emmanuelking, has expressed profound appreciation to Adron customers across Nigeria and in the diaspora for their unwavering trust, patronage, and continued recommendations of the company’s products throughout 2025.

He added that the company remains deeply grateful to customers for their role in strengthening Adron’s position as a leading real estate brand in Nigeria.

As the company steps into 2026, the Adron Group helmsman reassured customers of the brand’s unwavering commitment to service excellence, stressing that the company will continue to prioritize availability and affordability as its core mission.
