A remote rugby outpost in war-torn Libya has marked the death of Jonah Lomu with a day held in his honour.
Last Friday rugby players gathered at a ground in Benghazi to show their affection for the All Black great they revered as the sport's godfather.
Benghazi Rugby Group spokesman Abdelsalam Mohamed Elfarsi said the country's small rugby fraternity was left "grief stricken" by his sudden passing.
They decided to dedicate this year's annual Rugby Day to Lomu as a mark of respect.
"Jonah Lomu is like a godfather for us as rugby players," said Mr Elfarsi.
