Dear Anthony Joshua,

It is with a profound sense of shock and a heavy heart that I formally address you today. The news of the devastating automobile accident that occurred on our soil, tragically claiming key members of your inner circle, has deeply shaken me and indeed the entire nation.

I extend my most solemn condolences to you on the monumental loss of Mr. Sina Ghami, your esteemed strength and conditioning coach, and Mr. Latif "Latz" Ayodele, your trusted personal trainer and close confidant. Their sudden departure creates an irreplaceable void. My thoughts are firmly with you, their bereaved families, and your entire management team during this dark hour.

Anthony, you are a distinguished son of Nigeria. Your journey has served as a powerful beacon of hope and inspiration for countless Nigerians and Africans globally. Through your warrior spirit, discipline, and stellar accomplishments in the ring, you have consistently projected a positive and powerful image of our nation onto the international stage. We recognize and honour this contribution.

The unfortunate circumstances surrounding this tragedy reported on the Lagos-Ibadan expressway are deeply saddening. However, amidst our collective mourning for the irreplaceable lives lost, it brings some measure of relief to know that your condition is stable.

I join the nation as a whole in wishing you a swift, complete, and unhindered recovery. In this moment of profound adversity, I urge you to summon the same indomitable strength that has defined your career. We trust that you will emerge from this trying period fortified and stronger.
