Abuja (Sundiata Post) – With the narrative being propagated in the media the past few days, it may be necessary to interrogate the circumstances leading to the unfortunate demise of Dr Herbert Wigwe, his wife,Doreen, and son Chizi.
The effort being deployed by some faceless elements, in a media campaign, planting distorted information, brings to question the motive for their actions and why the private affairs of The Wigwe family are now in the public domain. There is obvious evidence of manipulation of facts and circumstances to influence public perceptions for selfish aspirations and gain.
Who are these faceless elements? Why are the private affairs of The Wigwe family now in the public domain? Who is desperately attempting to distort and rubbish Dr Herbert Wigwes legacy? Why the desperation to assume guardianship of Herbert’s minor children when he is survived by parents and siblings who have the capacity to assume the role of guiding and mentors?
It is important to place on record, Pastor and Mrs Shyngle Wigwe are respectable elders who have raised outstanding, successful and responsible children. The Wigwes have never courted the spotlight and simple folks living in quiet retirement after meritorious service to country and humanity. The Wigwes have no need or desire for anything in the estate of their deceased son and have never aspired to inherit their son Herbert or any of their children. Tragically, they are having to experience these traumatic circumstances which should ordinarily be the plot of a horror movie. It is in very bad taste that they are now being subjected to public scrutiny and ridicule by persons with ulterior motives.
LET THE WIGWE FAMILY GRIEVE SOLEMNLY.
