The controversy trailing the distribution of assets left behind by the late Herbert Wigwe, former Access Bank CEO has left many Nigerians shocked as to why his family, especially his 90-year old father is dragging his grandchildren to court few months after his death.

Pastor Shyngle Wigwe, the father of the late banking czar is currently in court with other family members- notably Herbert’s cousin, Christian Wigwe to alter the arrangements made in the will.

Others also contesting the will are Joyce Shyngle-Wigwe, the late Herbert’s sister and their brother, Emeka.

Under an order dated November 18, 2024, the suit number ID/7735FPM/2024 which was filed against Access Bank Plc, Coronation Merchant Bank Ltd, and United Securities Ltd, also named as defendants, Uche Wigwe, Aigboje A.I.G. Imoukhuede, and Miss Otutochi Channel Wigwe.

The claimants also sought an order for the appointment of Otutochi Wigwe, Uche Wigwe, Shyngle Wigwe, and two professionals—Zedra Trust Company (Isle of Man), a subsidiary of Zedra Corporate Solutions UK Limited (International Professional), and Pricewaterhouse Coopers Limited (Local Professional)—as interim administrators of Herbert Wigwe’s estate, pending the resolution of the substantive suit.

Also, the applicants requested an order placing Herbert Wigwe’s minor children (Chituru David Wigwe, Wegu & Hannah Wigwe, and Okachi Great Wigwe) under the joint guardianship of Otutochi Wigwe, Uche Wigwe, Emeka Wigwe, Shyngle Wigwe, and the two professionals, with Shyngle Wigwe overseeing their welfare.

Going further, they also sought authorisation for the interim administrators to maintain and ensure the welfare of Herbert Wigwe’s dependents, liaise with third parties regarding financial or property interests, submit monthly reports to the court, and obtain full disclosure from Access Bank Plc, Coronation Merchant Bank Ltd, and United Securities Ltd concerning shares or financial interests held on behalf of the deceased.

Delivering his ruling on February 6, Justice Olayinka Adeyemi of a Lagos High Court dismissed their application, saying their claims are unsustainable.

Undaunted, the family on February 13 filed an appeal to challenge the ruling of the court.

Recall that Herbert, his wife, Chizoba, and their son Chizi Wigwe died in an Helicopter which crashed near Halloran Springs, California, on February 9, 2024. The trio were buried on March 9, 2024 in Isiokpo, Rivers state.



How The Late Wigwe Willed His Assets – Family Member



Speaking with TheScrutinyNG, a family member of the Wigwes, who said she was embarrassed by the development, blamed the late Herbert’s siblings for the whole crisis.

According to her, she was shocked that some members of the family had approached the court to fight over assets barely eight months after Herbert’s untimely passage.

She told our correspondent, “As a member of the Wigwe family, I am deeply embarrassed by the whole thing. It is just the first annoversary of Herbert, his wife and their son’s death and we should all be in sober reflection, not fghting over mundane things”.

“It is Emeka and Joyce Wigwe that are instigating the old man (Herbert’s father). They all have no business with the will at all. Herbert’s will didn’t include his parents at all because he never envisioned that he will die before his parents. He took good care of them during his lifetime and ensured they lacked nothing. His dream was to give them a befitting burial when they die but as fate will have it, he went before them”.

When asked if he made any provision for his siblings in the will, our source said the late Herbert willed all his assets to his children equally.

She also queried the belief of the family that the eldest daughter of the late Herbert, Otutochi is too young to manage the assets.

“The will is very clear. He willed all his assets equally to his children. During his lifetime, he never got along with his siblings, especially Emeka”.

“I find out curious their claims that a 26-year old savvy, intelligent and educated lady is ‘too young’ to manage the assets her late parents left behind. Did she complain to them that she is too young to manage it?”.

On the accusation by the family that the late Herbert’s partner and Chairman of Access Holdings, Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede is taking an indirect guardianship of his children and assets while also assuming the role that belong to Herbert’s father, she said “ That can’t be true. We need to ask Tochi, are you comfortable with the role Aigboje is playing or not? She is an adult and can decide for herself and younger siblings. Has she come out to compain about anything? The whole thing reeks of nothing but greed”.

“ What they don’t know is that Herbert may be gone but he was an asset of Nigeria. A lot of Nigerians are still involved in the welfare of his assets, especially the children and they are monitoring the developments. He has committee of wealthy and important personalities and even Aigboje can’t take any decision without consulting with them” she said.

In a post on his Facebook page, a public affairs analyst with knowledge of the issue, Chukwudi Iwuchukwu wrote “Herbert Wigwe’s extended family and the kids he left behind are on a warpath. The war started immediately. Herbert, the benefactor of the warring parties, was buried last year. What is at the heart of the war is the vast wealth that Herbert left behind.

“In his lifetime, Herbert had a cousin who is a lawyer, Uche Wigwe, and because Uche enjoys his confidence and trust, he made Uche and AIG, his business partner, the trustee of his will”.

“Herbert died last year; he did not see his death coming and was not ready for it.

But he was prepared. Herbert was a meticulous man in his lifetime and so had a will and a family office to protect his kids regardless of their age and gender.

It is irrelevant that the only remaining heir is a female. As long as she is Herbert’s kid, acknowledged by him in his lifetime, she is entitled to enjoy the wealth made by her dad”.

“After his interment last year at Isiokpo, his extended family had a brainwave.

Since Herbert, our benefactor, is no more, we can’t allow the kids to enjoy this vast wealth alone. They’re too young to enjoy such a vast wealth, and besides, the oldest of the surviving kids is a 26-year-old, Tochi. Tochi is a woman, and in their thinking, too young to control what his late dad left behind. The rest of Tochi‘s surviving siblings are younger than her and they are in secondary schools”.

“The Herbert Wigwe family is accusing Tochi of living a champagne life, which they believe she is too young to enjoy. Tochi is living alone with the house servants in the palatial mansion on Queen Drive, Ikoyi, that her dad built, which he did not enjoy before he died. They also accused her of flying private jets and using the private jet that the dad left behind for her local travel. To regulate this extravagance and more, they are demanding 20% ownership of the estate (wealth) left behind by their late son. They also demand joint custody of the kids under the supervision of their 90-year-old dad”.

“When the family could not prevail on AIG and Uche Wigwe, the two trustees that are managing Herbert’s wealth, to dance to their tune, the case proceeded to the Lagos High Court last year. Just last week, the case was thrown out by the court for lack of merit. To the shock of many following the drama, the Wigwe family went to Appeal court to appeal this verdict by Lagos high court”.

“The biggest lesson to take home from this Wigwe soap opera is simple. Nobody knows when death will come, but as a rich man or woman living in Nigeria, put a proper structure in place to protect your family from the greed of your family who wants to reap where they did not sow. Write a will. Establish a family office to manage your wealth. Appoint trustworthy people you trust as trustees and enforcers of your will. This is the debt and the duty you owe your kids. And this is what Herbert has taught us and is the best exemplifier of this”.

Kaiii, Wigwe what Happened to Herbert?

But the wealth is too much for the children naa..
Make him family and good inlaws chop small...
His siblings are not supposed to suffer again especially if they have good character.

I hate it when a small girl inherited a generational wealth only to attract druggie thugs later in life as romantic partner to waste the billions on drugs

If you become the only billionaire in your family and fail to lift others, you build a fragile empire. You own nothing of them, but by empowering them, you create a safety net—one that catches you if you ever fall. Without it, when you go down, you go down alone.

The rich uncle mentality that runs in the east comes to mind.
"If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together."

This is exactly what i was telling someone in a discussion few months ago. I dont understand how some people still carry the mentality that a female child is not entitled to her fathers wealth. As long as the father writes a will and gives his wealth to a female child there is nothing anyone can do about it. He kept telling me in his place which is somewhere in Imo state the female child has no write and if its him he will collect the properties from her. I told him that wont be possible as long as there is a will and he kept saying that is their tradition but i insisted as long as there is a will it wont work.

I am one big promoter of will writing. Whatever properties you have and as long as you have started your own family ensure you have a will. You can always adjust it at any time as you acquire more and have more kids. Dont put your female kids to shame because of one useless outdated tradition that says female children cannot inherit their fathers wealth or properties. Learn to protect all your kids with just a simple will.

I don't think it is his Will

In African culture you don't inherit your children properties. You don't inherit the properties of your younger sibling. The belief is that the elder should die before the younger

Sponsored stupid article.

1. Where is the greed in the request for professional administrators of Herbert Wigwe’s Estate as demanded by the family? Those running away from accountability and transparency are usually the ones with something to hide.

2. Where is Herbert’s Will that named Uche Wigwe and Aig as administrators? Herbert’s Will purportedly registered in Florida contains 18 pages and only 3 pages in the Will brought for domestication. It named an American woman as the administrator but he woman was reportedly paid.millions to cede the role to Uche Wigwe. That and the reference to a Florida Asset in the Will raise questions that are yet unanswered.

It is my take that Uche Wigwe and Aig are trying to force a narrative while shrouding the Will in secrecy. Why would the Will be read in the absence of Herbert’s parents and siblings if there is indeed transparency?

You read the Will in the absence of others and then start forcing a narrative that this is what the Will says. Isn't that clear indication of fraud?

At this point, Herbert Wigwes death is becoming suspicious. I read that the socalled "will" was just 2 pages and that Aigboje got the will read at the back of the rest of the family. Aigboje seem to prefer to deal with his young daughter.That is suspicious. The death has always been suspicious anyways. How a Nigerian man and his wife and his first son will accept to jump into a helicopter in the night to go and see a super bowl makes no sense to me. Just as I suspect Ifeanyi Ubahs demise, there might be a very sophisticated play in motion here, and the naive daughter is just too starry eyed to understandthe complexities of what is going on..

Very shameless family

It's for the children na 💯

The family can never win in court. AIG Imokede will press their neck🤣😂😅

They can still go back to court for CTC 🤷

A LESSON to ALL.. Write a WILL in your lifetime.
Anything can happen to anyone. Think of the future. Don't just acquire #properties #Assets and #stocks

I'm just patiently waiting for a greedy Afonjah like FFK or Tinubu that will lay claim to Igboman Wigwe's wealth.

You're just jealous. It's not her fault, your own father didn't leave a legacy for you.

You better get to working, so your own children won't look at another man's property with longing and bitterness, just as you're doing right now.

"Small girl" at 26. But it's that same age you will say is enough to marry.

I don't trust that Aig one bit, and the so-called Uche. At the end of the day, their aim is to corner significant portions of Wigwe's wealth to themselves, and they will shortchange even the said Tochi and her minor siblings in the long run.

I mean certain things are just commonsensical.

Why shroud the will and the full extent of Wigwe's assets in so much secrecy? Besides, assuming but not conceding that Wigwe did not make any provision for his parents and siblings in his will, it still makes sense to accommodate them, within the bounds of an amicable resolution. Especially given the unexpected and extraordinary nature of his sudden death along with his wife and first son. Come on. Frankly, anything from 10% to 20% of the assets is a fair concession to his parents and siblings.

The Herbert Wigwe family is accusing Tochi of living a champagne life, which they believe she is too young to enjoy. Tochi is living alone with the house servants in the palatial mansion on Queen Drive, Ikoyi, that her dad built, which he did not enjoy before he died. They also accused her of flying private jets and using the private jet that the dad left behind for her local travel

Bitter family.

so they were waiting for him to die

This issue will attract generational curse. Herbert Wigwe’s family should step aside from his kids! This is crazy, why would the family argue with the kids? This is entitlement mentality at the highest!

The High Court did not throw out their case. The case is yet to be determined but their made motion for interlocutory injunction (i.e. appointment of interim administrators of the estate) which is about the same request on matters in the substantive suit and the judge rightly declined according to law.

They are bothered that while the case is on, the assets may be mismanaged. However, since there is no existing evidence of mismanagement, the Court cannot act on assumptions.

What they should have requested for is accelerated hearing and not interlocutory injunction on requests similar to the substantive suit.

The High Court didn't grant any of their requests. It's tantamount to throwing it out

What the High Court gave was a ruling on the motion for interlocutory injunction to appoint interim administrators for Herbert's Estate. The substantive suit is still going on and no judgment has been delivered yet. So it is wrong to say or assume that the case has been thrown out.

Anyhow. It's all about greed. What if Herbert died a poor man?

When Herbert’s elder brother died, it was Herbert that took charge of the children and family left behind. The reality is that when a poor man dies it is the extended family that are saddled with responsibilities except they choose to avoid it. How many dead poor man's friends are interested in taking care of the children and family he left behind? Will Aig be running up and down as alleged estate administrator if Herbert died a poor man? Not at all.

Now that Herbert died a wealthy man, does Aig who is also a wealthy man have anything to gain from administering Herbert's Estate? Definitely YES.

Herbert died as the largest shareholder in Access Bank Holdings, having overtaken Aig. Now Aig is immediately back as Chairman of Access Holdings once Herbert is dead. His being able to control Herbert's shares grant him a lot of power in Access Holdings such that no one can stand up to him.

My take on their relationship is that Herbert is the brain in their banking duo. Aig had only a law degree but Herbert had a degree in accounting, masters in banking and finance and masters in business administration. And that is why Herbert was the most visible Deputy Managing Director and perhaps the only one in the Nigerian banking world when both were together. They were more or less running a co-CEO system.

After Herbert became the Group Managing Director after the exit of Aig, no one can deny that he left a bigger legacy and had more impact than Aig. After Aig left Access, what impact has he made outside Access?

In such a relationship that Aig and Herbert had, deep seated jealousy can develop such that internally Aig may keep convincing himself he is a better man than Herbert. And that is why I was not surprised to hear that he was belittling Herbert after he came back as Chairman of Access Holdings on Herbert's death, referring to Herbert as one of his employees. A person like that is a dangerous person to be in charge of Herbert's kids.

What has been surprising to me is that Aig's children went ahead to attend the Super Bowl after the death of Herbert and his wife and son and within a matter of one or two days of their death. The same Super Bowl they were planning to attend and died in the process. Even Iluyomade who was not Herbert's best friend got carpeted for celebrating his wife's birthday shortly after the death of Herbert, how much more Herbert's best friend's family enjoying the Super Bowl within a day or two of Herbert's death.

Leaving Herbert's children and fortune in the hands of such a best friend is very risky.
