Father of Herbert Wigwe “slumps;” taken to hospital

Shyngle Wigwe, the father of late Dr. Herbert Wigwe, the former CEO of Access Holdings, allegedly slumps earlier today, March 9, and needed emergency medical attention at a neighboring hospital.

Tony Ogbuagu, a well-known influencer on X (previously Twitter), revealed this while refuting rumors that the late billionaire’s father had passed away.

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.”

On March 9, 2024, in the Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State, mourners gathered for Wigwe’s, his wife Chizoba Doreen’s, and their son Chizzy’s burial.

Following a joint funeral ceremony at the Lion of Judah Parish, Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Isiokpo, they were buried.

Along with his wife and children, Wigwe died in a helicopter crash in the United States on February 9, 2024.
