The 20% was said to be allocated to him and other family members, which is against Herbert’s will, stating that his assets should be distributed exclusively among his children.

This was contained in a statement issued and signed by Emeka Wigwe on Tuesday, October 15.

“To clarify, Pastor Shyngle Wigwe has never sought 20% of the Estate of the late Herbert Wigwe, and no such request has been made by any family member. The claim in these reports that Pastor Shyngle Wigwe intended to disinherit his grandchildren is entirely false and grossly misleading.”
