When Dr.

Herbert Wigwe, the esteemed former Group Managing Director and CEO of Access Bank PLC, died in a tragic helicopter crash in February 2024, the financial world mourned the loss of a visionary leader.

The crash, which occurred in the United States of America, also claimed the lives of his wife, Chizoba, and their eldest son, Chizzy Wigwe, leaving behind not only a legacy of corporate excellence but also a family grappling with grief and an unfolding legal battle over his vast estate.

In the wake of the Nigerian billionaire's passing, reports surfaced alleging internal disputes within the Wigwe family.
