Adeniyi Kayode, the driver of a car carrying boxer Anthony Joshua, appeared in a Nigerian court on Tuesday following a crash on December 29th that killed two of Joshua's team members, Latif Ayodele and Sina Ghami. Kayode is charged with four crimes, including death by dangerous driving, related to the incident on the Lagos-Ibadan expressway. Joshua, who was injured in the crash, was treated in a hospital and later discharged. Kayode's court appearance in Sagamu was brief, and the case was adjourned until February 25th to allow the prosecutor more time to seek legal advice. Kayode had previously been released on bail.
