The Labour Party presidential candidate for the 2023 general election, Peter Obi, alongside the FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, were among the dignitaries who attended the Christian wake of the late Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Access Holdings, Herbert Wigwe, his wife, and son.
Heraldviews recalls that Wigwe, his wife
Chizoba, and their eldest son Chizzy, were part of an ill-fated air crash in
the US about a month ago.
However, Channels TV reports
that the Governor of Rivers State, Siminalyi Fubara, and Tonye Cole, the All
Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the 2023 governorship election in
Rivers State, were also among those in attendance to pay their final respects
before the burial ceremony scheduled for Saturday.
The bodies of the late Chief
Executive Officer of Access Holdings, Herbert Wigwe, as well as those of his
wife, Chizoba and son, Chizitere, have arrived in Nigeria ahead of their
burial.
Heraldviews understands the
remains arrived in Nigeria from the United States of America via the Port
Harcourt International Airport on Friday.
The trio, alongside the former
group chairman of Nigerian Exchange Group Plc (NGX Group), Abimbola Ogunbanjo,
lost their lives in a helicopter crash in the United States last month.
The remains of the Wigwes are
scheduled for burial on Saturday at Isiokpo, his hometown, in Ikwerre LGA of
Rivers State.
