Barring any last-minute hitches, the burial prayers for the departing souls of Sina Ghami and Latif Ayodele will be held this morning at 10 am in London.
This was contained in the programmes shared with The Guardian on Sunday.
The Janaza Prayer Service is expected to take place at the London Central Mosque, 146 Park Road, London NW8 7RG.
Two of Anthony Joshua’s close friends and team members were killed in a car crash in Nigeria, which also injured the British heavyweight boxer.
Sina Ghami and Latif Ayodele lost their lives when the vehicle they were travelling in, alongside Anthony Joshua and another passenger, collided with a stationary truck on a major road near Lagos.
Joshua returned to the UK on Friday night following the horror crash that left him hospitalised, and he is expected at the Janaza Prayer Service alongside his mum, and other family members
The British heavyweight boxer landed at London Stansted Airport in a private jet on Friday night and was ferried to his mansion, where he’ll continue his recuperation.
Ghami served as Joshua’s full-time sport and exercise rehabilitation coach for over 10 years. He played a crucial role in helping the 36-year-old former heavyweight champion prepare for some of the biggest fights of his career, including the title-winning match against Wladimir Klitschko in 2017 and his recent victory over Jake Paul this month.
In addition to working with Joshua, Ghami has also trained former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell and Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors. Just hours before the crash, Joshua shared a video on Instagram where he was playing table tennis with his longtime friend Ayodele, who is also a personal trainer.
Sina and Latz are regarded as massive parts of the Anthony Joshua winning machine.
Joshua had recently returned to the ring after more than a year away, defeating Jake Paul on Netflix in what turned out to be a significant payday. He was in Nigeria to celebrate New Year with his family when tragedy struck.
The plan was for Joshua to fight again in Saudi Arabia in February, eventually moving toward the highly anticipated bout against Tyson Fury later in 2026. However, at this moment, those plans feel secondary
