Late Hebert Wigwe

The late Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Access Holdings Plc, Herbert Wigwe, has gotten the first honour since he was announced dead in an helicopter crash in the United States of America.

ROYAL NEWS reports that Wigwe died alongside his wife, son and two others during the unfortunate incident.

However, the Chairman of the Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, has announced plans to honour the late banking icon, Herbert Wigwe, by naming a road leading to the Dangote Refinery after him.

Dangote made this revelation while paying tribute to Wigwe during a memorial event organized by professionals on Monday.

He said: “To immortalize my beloved friend, my brother, and my mentee, I have decided to designate one of the major roads leading to the Dangote Refinery and Petrochemical Complex after him. Out of the 120 kilometers of road, the largest stretch will now bear the name ‘Herbert Wigwe.’”
