Governor Sanwo-Olu eulogized Wigwe, stating that he embodied the true spirit of Lagos State, emphasizing that the commercial center would not forget his contributions. Describing Wigwe as a “completely detribalized” individual, Sanwo-Olu acknowledged his lasting impact on Lagos.

Yemi Cardoso and Wale Edun also paid tribute to the late Access Holding group CEO, recalling his significant contributions to the nation’s economy. Edun highlighted Wigwe’s creative thinking and abundance of innovative ideas, while Cardoso mourned the profound loss the nation had suffered.

Akinwumi Adesina, President of the African Development Bank Group, commended Wigwe’s ingenuity, emphasizing that everything he touched turned into gold. The event served as a platform for heartfelt tributes and reminiscences about Herbert Wigwe’s professional legacy.

In the wake of the tragic loss, Aliko Dangote’s gesture of naming the road to the Dangote Refinery after Herbert Wigwe stands as a lasting tribute to a devoted friend, mentee, and supporter whose impact on the business and economic landscape will not be forgotten.
