A woman who attended the emotional burial ceremony for two close friends of British-Nigerian boxing champion Anthony Joshua has shared a mysterious and poignant image she captured at the graveside, sparking widespread reactions online.
The Tragic Accident and London Funeral
The somber event took place in London on Sunday, January 4, 2026, following a fatal road accident in Nigeria. The incident occurred on December 29, 2025, on a major road in Ogun State. A car carrying the boxer and his three associates collided with a stationary truck.
While Anthony Joshua sustained minor injuries and was transported to a hospital in a police van due to the lack of an immediate ambulance, the accident claimed the lives of his two friends. The deceased were identified as Abdul Latif (known as Latz) and Sina Ghami. Both men were laid to rest together in a ceremony attended by Joshua and other mourners.
A Mysterious Sighting Above the Graves
An attendee named Rebecca, using the Instagram handle @honeymck23, posted a series of emotional tributes to her friend Abdul Latif. In her posts, she described him as a kind, loving, and disciplined individual with a big heart.
However, it was the seventh slide in her Instagram carousel that captured significant attention. Rebecca posted a photo of something highly unusual she witnessed at the burial site. She captioned the image, explaining the surreal moment.
"P.S. That 7th slide was crazy. I literally captured 2 rainbow coloured figures in the sky at the graveside. They were both joined at first then began to separate as they flew away," she wrote.
Emotional Reactions from the Online Community
The photo of the alleged rainbow figures and the heartbreaking story elicited a flood of emotional responses from social media users, turning the burial into a trending topic online.
