Late Group Chief Executive Officer of Access Holdings PLC, Herbert Wigwe, built a tomb for himself, it has been revealed.
The Nation had reported that Wigwe; wife, Chizoba; and son, Chizi, are scheduled for burial between March 4 and 10, 2024.
The three died in a helicopter crash in California, United States of America on February 9, 2024.
Rivers Governor Siminalayi Fubara also said the State will immortalise the late Wigwe.
A source, according to the Vanguard, said: “He built this private cemetery before he started the university.”
“His house here has been designed to have a special gate and walls separated from the university. I can tell you that he had a big vision.
“Very good vision and he was making efforts to ensure that those visions came to a reality.
“But what I cannot tell you right now is whether those visions will still be achieved.
“It is located inside Wigwe International University, Isikpo, Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital,” the source said.
“The sight of the transparent private cemetery is a clear testament to the fact that Dr. Herbert Wigwe was not just rich while alive, he appears even richer in death.
