THERE IS NO NEED TO FIGHT OVER HERBERT WIGWE'S WILL By JESUTEGA ONOKPASA I just heard that the parents of our brother, the late Herbert Wigwe, have gone to court to contest his will. Herbert Wigwe would naturally had envisaged that he would bury his parents and not the other way round. Unfortunately, our dearly departed brother died before his beloved parents. In that case, they are entitled to a share of his wealth, being the ones who gave birth to him and made him who he was by the most Divine Grace and Providence of Almighty God. Nothing is more disgusting than people fighting over the property of a diseased person - property they did not earn. We are Niger Deltans and we have a saying that where there is no greed, even the leg of an ant can be shared. The Wigwes are one family and Herbert left far more than enough to go around. I enjoin Herbert's children to embrace their grandparents for they are the ones most solidly on their side at this time. We have culture - we do not fight our parents, not to talk of our grandparents. We do not disgrace our parents, neither do we dishonour our grandparents. May the Good Lord Jesus bring healing, reconciliation and unity to the house of the Wigwes. May Herbert's adorable children be embraced by the Holy Spirit, Almighty God, The Giver of Life - they will live long and be truly blessed and fully alive. The untimely death that took their parents, sibling and family friend will never find them in Jesus Most Holy and Almighty Name. May the souls of the faithful departed, rest in the Most Holy Bosom of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. My dear Wigwes, you are one: please take this unnecessary case out of court and embrace yourselves as the children of God that you are. Onokpasa, a lawyer, writes from Abuja.
