By Michael Ehindero

The driver of the vehicle conveying former world heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua during the fatal crash on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway has been discharged from hospital and may be charged with reckless driving.

“Anthony Joshua’s driver has been discharged from the hospital, and he is currently giving his statement,” the spokesperson for the Nigeria Police Force, CSP Benjamin Hundeyin said.

An official of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) said the driver of the truck involved in the accident fled the scene immediately and has been declared wanted by authorities.

Joshua, 36, was rushed to Duchess International Hospital in Lagos and is reported to be in stable condition.

However, two members of Joshua's entourage, Sina Ghami and Latif Ayodele, were killed at the scene of the crash.

The boxer’s family earlier expressed concern over their inability to see him following the accident. Speaking to journalists on Tuesday at the family’s residence in Ijokun, Sagamu, Joshua’s uncle, Adedamola Joshua, described the incident as a “rude shock,” adding that the family was not promptly informed. In his words.....

“Sincerely, the news that our son, Anthony Joshua, was involved in a fatal crash came to us as a rude shock,” he said.

“We did not get to hear this terrible news on time until calls started coming in from people seeking confirmation. Anthony comes home three or four times a year, especially during the festive season, and it is usually a time to rejoice with family. This was completely unexpected.”

Uganda Shuts Down Internet as President Museveni seeks to extend 40 year rule

By Michael Ehindero
Image
Uganda has been plunged into a nationwide digital blackout on Tuesday evening as the government ordered internet service providers to sever connections just two days before a pivotal general election. The formal directive from the Uganda Communications Commission cited the need to curb misinformation, electoral fraud, and potential incitement to violence as justifications for the shutdown.  While government officials privately confirmed the order to AFP, the administration has avoided making a public announcement, reportedly to distance itself from the controversial decision. The timing of the disconnection heightens tensions as President Yoweri Museveni seeks to extend his four-decade rule against a familiar challenger, singer-turned-politician Bobi Wine. The blackout, which commenced at 6:00 pm local time, marks a stark reversal of recent government promises. Authorities had previously dismissed reports of an impending shutdown as "false" rumors designed to sp...
