God Did Not Save Anthony Joshua From Ghastly Accident – Daddy Freeze

Anthony Joshua

Popular media personality Daddy Freeze has reacted to rumours of Anthony Joshua’s alleged retirement following a fatal Lagos-Ibadan expressway crash. He recently challenged religious narratives that framed the boxer’s survival as divine intervention while two close friends lost their lives.

According to him, rather than focus on the religious framing of the accident, he prefers to point out the human responsibility and structural failures that have forced AJ to live with unexpected grief.

Freeze added that Anthony Joshua’s possible early Boxing retirement is the reason why his escape should not be described as a miracle.

His words, “What Exactly Did God Save Him From. Because This Looks Like A Career Cut Short And A Life Time Of Trauma. May The Dearly Departed Rest In Peace. This Incident Could Have Been Avoided, Carelessness Of Man Is Not Gods Will.

When I said the other day that religion makes people dumb, this is what I meant. So this is how Anthony Joshua survived the accident. You call this survival.

He’s going to have to give up his career. Early retirement. That’s survival? Really? He’s going to live with survivor’s guilt.

Our dangerous, indiscriminate road use put two people’s lives in danger. God didn’t save him. Unless God is wicked.”

WOW.

Anthony Joshua, OBE (born 15 October 1989) is a British professional boxer who is a two-time unified heavyweight champion, having held the WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, and IBO titles since December 2019 and previously between 2016 and June 2019. At regional level, he held the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles from 2014 to 2016.

Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua was born on 15 October 1989 in Watford, Hertfordshire, the son of Yeta and Robert Joshua. His mother is Nigerian, while his father is of Nigerian and Irish ancestry. Joshua’s Nigerian background can be specifically traced back to the Yoruba people, amongst whom he is of aristocratic rank.

His cousin, Ben Ileyemi, is also a professional boxer. The pair made their professional debuts together in 2013. Joshua spent some of his early years in Nigeria as a boarding school student at Mayflower School in Ikenne.

Following his parents’ divorce when he was 12, he returned to the UK halfway through Year Seven to join Kings Langley Secondary School. Growing up on the Meriden Estate in Garston, Hertfordshire, he was called “Femi” by his friends and former teachers, due to his middle name, Oluwafemi. He excelled at football and athletics and broke his school’s Year Nine 100 m record with a time of 11.6 seconds.
