• How the miracle-working banker had everyone eating from his palms
Genius is of no country. But it is surely of a descent of men who reach such an acute unlimited excellence in their prime, that every sterling exploit afterward, savours of unprecedented brilliance. Few men are wrought of such transcendent capacity for genius as Herbert Wigwe, the ebullient MD of Access bank.

The top banker pulsates exceptional intellect and that singular forthrightness that imbues philosophy with logic and sound theory. Like a lightning shaft from Eden, Wigwe dazzled a large audience and commanded applause when CNBC Africa turned its spotlight on him in an episode of its Captains of Industry series. Wigwe discussed Access Bank’s success story as a leading innovator and champion of sustainable growth in its industry. He would have been a good broadcaster because of his occidental drawl, but somehow, the windmills of the gods, set a different path for him.

What, however, journalism profession missed in him, he is giving to banking. The bank is notable for technological innovations like Paywithcapture 5, which is Africa’s first digital banking platform. They were also sponsors of the 2017 Re:Code Nigeria Hackathon for developers and designers which held in Lagos on the 23rd of March. One of the highlights of the interview was the discussion on how Access Bank’s fintech model helped Dangote Industries reward its customers.
