A close family member has debunked reports of Pastor Shyngle Wigwe, collapsing during the funeral of his late son.
There was apprehension among concerned Nigerians when an unconfirmed report claimed that the father of the late Access Bank Holdings CEO slumped during his son’s funeral service at Isiokpo in Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers state.
Other reports claimed the over 80-year-old slumped and d!ed
The family source appealed to members of the public to allow the family mourn its d3ad and not add to their pains.
The source added, “Even the Senate President (Godswill Akpabio) met and prayed for him.
“The story of Pa Wigwe’s collapse is totally false. We should allow the family to mourn its d3ad and not add to the pain by writing false stories.”
The remains of the deceased have been interred at a private cemetery within the Wigwe University premises in Isiokpo.
