It’s not easy to bury three of my Children at the same time and on the same day —Herbert Wigwe’s Father
The aged father of Access Bank CEO Hebert Wigwe has voiced out that it is not easy to bury three of his children at the same time and on the same day.
He stated this while receiving the delegates of Ohaneze ndi igbo and Aliko Dangote and thanking them for their concerns.
Herbert’s father, who appeared stronger, charged everyone to amend their ways because no one knows when death can call.
He said: “I’m indeed very grateful that you have come to see us. May what happened never happen to anyone here in Jesus name. It is something you will never wish for your enemy.
“As a child of God, I’m happy with the gift of God in the person of Harbert. That gift he gave to me for 57 years gives me so much joy. I’m very pleased.
“Naturally, one would be sad, shocked, one would want to feel disappointed, but what I want to tell you today is that Herbert is not dead. Indeed, he has been promoted to another life.
“When people come to see me crying, I ask them, why are you crying? When you look around, there is hardly anybody who is likely to live here for another 70 years. We’re just crossing in transit here, this is like the normal market we go to, everybody, you go and buy and go back home.
“We’re in transit here, it’s a temporary place. One thing we know is that death has no respect for anybody. There’s nobody who has any immunity for death, it goes round, it rains everywhere. Indeed, even as we speak, some of those who have been with us since, maybe one or two may have gone.
“So, one thing is definite, every one of us here must go, and so there is no point in crying. But what is important is where you are going. What is important is where you are going.
It is important that we all embrace Jesus at this point in time, that was one lesson I learned from my son’s death,” Herbert Wigwe’s father advised.
