It is with profound sadness that we mourn the passing of two titans of Nigeria’s Capital Market: Dr. Herbert Wigwe, C.F.R, and Otunba Abimbola Ogunbanjo OFR.

Dr. Herbert Wigwe, C.F.R, was a revered and visionary member of our Board of Directors.

The sorrow deepens as we learn of the passing of his wife and son.

We also join the Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX Group) PLC, our largest shareholder to mourn the loss of Otunba Abimbola Ogunbanjo OFR, the Immediate Past Chairman of Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX Group) PLC.

As we come to terms with these irreplaceable losses, we extend our deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences to their families, colleagues, and loved ones.

Commenting on the loss of Dr. Wigwe and Otunba Ogunbanjo, Oscar N. Onyema, OON, Chairman of the Board of Directors at NG Clearing Limited, said, “We have lost two brothers and associates who contributed significantly to the growth of NG Clearing and will continue to inspire us for the foreseeable future”
