President BOLA TINUBU has again paid tribute to late banking tycoon HERBERT WIGWE, one year after his death, saying that Nigeria lost “a shining star”.
Recall that the banker, his wife CHIZOBA; his son CHIZI, and a former President of the National Council of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) ABIMBOLA OGUNBAJO died in an air crash exactly one year ago in the United States.
During the one-year remembrance service for WIGWE which was held yesterday in Lagos, the president who was represented by the Minister of Finance WALE EDUN said the late businessman built institutions, and through them, contributed to youth empowerment, education, healthcare, and philanthropy among others.
The president extended his condolences to the WIGWE family; Access Holdings, friends, and loved ones the former banker left behind, adding that the enduring legacy of his work, his values, and the institutions he built, will always remind Nigerians that vision, hard work, and service to humanity are measures of true greatness.
