Pastor Shyngle Wige (Herbert Wige’s Father) has denied the allegation stating categorically that he never requested for 20% of his son’s estate.
Curiously the family has named Aig-Imoukhuede as the person behind the crisis.
Christian Chukwak Wigwe, a cousin of the late Herbert Wigwe and former group managing director and CEO of Access Bank, has filed an Affidavit of Truth accusing Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede of taking indirect guardianship and custody of the deceased’s assets and children.
According to the affidavit filed at the Lagos High Court Probate Registry, Christian stated that Aig-Imoukhuede, who was a business partner to the deceased, is taking on a role that should rightfully belong to Pastor Shyngle Wige, the grandfather of the children.
In the court document dated October 7, 2024, Christian emphasized that Pastor Shyngle should be the one to determine the welfare of his grandchildren David, Hannah and Great.
He said: “In accordance with African values and good order, it will naturally be the father of the deceased, Pastor Shyngle Wigwe, who will act as guardian to the minor children or at the very least, he will be consulted to ascertain who should act as guardian.
“Pastor Shyngle Wigwe (grandfather) should ordinarily play a role in determining the welfare of his grandchildren. Given his fatherly role, his involvement in their upbringing would be both natural and beneficial.”
This act, Christian said, had made it difficult for Shyngle to act as “guardian for the children, particularly the minor children.”
He added: “Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede is currently controlling the assets of the Late Herbert Wige. While Pastor Shyngle Wigwe, otherwise natural guardian of Herbert’s minor children, would usually not be bothered by this, the way Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede is handling the assets is grossly undermining Pastor Shyngle Wigwe’s role as guardian and the head of the Wigwe family.
“Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede’s access to Herbert’s funds gives him a certain level of influence over decisions that affect the deceased’s children.
