The father of billionaire business mogul and late former Chief Executive Officer of Access Holdings, Dr Herbert Wigwe, Pastor Shyngle earlier today reportedly slumped during the burial of his son who died in a helicopter crash alongside his wife and son, a month ago.
This was made known by a popular influencer on X, Tony Ogbuagu who denied the purported death of the late billionaire’s father.
He wrote: “Herbert Wigwe’s father is not dead please. He only slumped and has been taken to the hospital. Make una slow down with all these bad news.”
But Vanguard newspaper reported otherwise, citing a credible police source who claimed Herbert Wigwe’s father was “Hale and hearty”.
The source added: “Even the Senate President (Godswill Akpabio) met and prayed for him.
“The story of Pa Wigwe’s collapse is totally false. We should allow the family to mourn its dead and not add to the pain by writing false stories,” the source added.
Several dignitaries graced the funeral service at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Lion of Judah Parish, Isiokpo.
