Trial of Lexus SUV Driver in Anthony Joshua Crash Adjourned to June 2
The Ogun Magistrates Court in Sagamu has adjourned the trial of Adeniyi Mobolaji, the driver of the Lexus SUV in the December 29 crash involving former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, until June 2, 2026. This marks the third postponement as prosecutors prepare fresh charges. Mobolaji faces four counts including dangerous driving causing death, reckless and negligent driving causing bodily harm and property damage, and driving without a valid national driver’s licence. Magistrate Olufunmilayo Somefun granted the adjournment at the request of the prosecution, with no objection from the defence. The accident on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway claimed the lives of Joshua’s personal trainer, Latif Ayodele, and strength and conditioning coach, Sina Ghami. Both legal teams say the delay will ensure a full and fair hearing.
