Tochi Wigwe, the daughter of the founder of Wigwe University, delivered a heartfelt speech during the maiden matriculation ceremony of her father's institution.
The matriculation ceremony took place on November 14, 2024, almost a month after academic activities started in the school.
The school kicked off its academic operations about 240 days after the tragic demise of its founder, Herbert Wigwe, the late Access Bank CEO.
Almost a month after it opened its doors to new students, the school officially organised its first matriculation to welcome them.
