In an emotional tribute to the late Access Bank chief, Herbert Wigwe, Dangote Group Chairman and CEO, Aliko Dangote, unveiled a heartfelt gesture by renaming the thoroughfare leading to his refinery after his cherished friend and colleague.
Amid tears and heartfelt remembrance, Dangote hailed Wigwe as more than just a colleague but a dear friend, mentee, and brother, underscoring the profound impact the late banker had on his life and the business community at large.
Wigwe’s untimely demise, alongside his wife, Chizoba, and son in a tragic plane crash in the United States, sent shockwaves through the nation, claiming the lives of prominent figures like former Nigerian Stock Exchange Group Chairman, Abimola Ogunbanjo, on February 9, 2024.
