Ifeoluwa Adeniyi, the 19-year-old son of Anthony Joshua’s long-time driver, has given a detailed account of the tragic road incident involving the boxing superstar.
According to Ifeoluwa, his father was driving Anthony Joshua to Sagamu to visit his family after picking them up from the airport. He revealed that Anthony Joshua was initially seated in the front passenger seat, but during the journey, the driver explained that his view was being obstructed. As a result, Latif swapped seats with the boxer, moving Anthony Joshua to another position in the vehicle.
Ifeoluwa strongly dismissed claims of reckless driving or overspeeding, stressing that his father is an experienced and cautious driver. He explained that the accident occurred due to a sudden brake failure while they were on the road. In a desperate attempt to avoid a stationary truck ahead, his father tried to swerve, but tragically, the vehicle crashed into the truck.
He further disclosed that his father had been Anthony Joshua’s personal driver for at least three years, highlighting the level of trust and professionalism between them. The family, he said, is deeply saddened by the incident and has accepted the situation with faith.
“It is well,” Ifeoluwa concluded, as the family continues to come to terms with the aftermath of the crash.
