Despite malicious rumors circulating on social media, he vowed to never abandon Herbert's children. "Tochi, Hannah, David, Okachi, you are mine, just as my children were your dad's children when he was here with us," Aigboje Imoukhuede said. "Herbert is irreplaceable as a friend; he is irreplaceable as a partner." This tribute serves as a reminder that some legacies, like Herbert's, are far too significant to be left behind.
At a poignant memorial ceremony honoring Herbert, who tragically passed away alongside his wife Doreen, son Chizi, and Bimbo Ogunbanjo, the former chairman of the Nigeria Exchange Group (NGX), Aig spoke from the heart. He passionately declared that Herbert was more than just a friend, he was a visionary leader.
According to Aig, the best way to honor Herbert is by upholding the values he stood for: advancing the growth of Nigerian banks while driving economic development and social impact. Though he is no longer here, his blueprint for African banking remains. His story serves as a reminder that true success is not about the size of the bank account, but the depth of the impact one leaves behind.
Herbert Wigwe built more than just a bank—he built a legacy. And that legacy will stand the test of time.
