Joshua's message to his friend
Joshua, who sustained minor injuries in the incident, was released from the hospital on New Year's Eve and returned to UK.
Taking to Instagram to express his grief, Joshua wrote, "Thank you for all the love and care you have shown my brothers. I didn't even realise how special they are."
He continued, "I'll just be walking with them and cracking jokes with them, not even knowing God kept me in the presence of great men.
“100 per cent it's tough for me, but I know it's even tougher for their parents. I have a strong mind, and I believe God knows their hearts. May God have mercy on my brothers."

Following the accident, Nigerian police have since charged the driver of the vehicle, Adeniyi Mobolaji Kayode, with several offences, including causing death by dangerous driving and driving without a licence.
The defendant was granted bail set at 5,000,000 Naira (approximately £2,578) and was remanded in custody until the conditions were met. The case has been adjourned until January 20.
