Iwuanyanwu didn’t bar widow from remarrying – Will executors 

The late Chief Iwuanyanwu did not forbid his you g widow to remarry if she wishes.

According to executors of the will of late industrialist,  the reports the late industrialist included in his Will a clause that his young wife would lose her inheritance if she remarries are untrue.

The executors of the will, in a statement, described the reports as a misrepresentation, mischievous,  factually incorrect and deeply disrespectful.

The statement reads: “On the Misrepresentation of the Will of Late, Chief Engr. Emmanuel Chukwuemeka Iwuanyanwu (CFR, OFR, MFR, KSC) by uninformed and deliberately mischievous persons.

“We have observed with understandable dismay, the circulation of false and misleading reports in the media, [both electronic and print] particularly those suggesting that, Chief Emmanuel Chukwuemeka Iwuanyanwu (Ahaejiagamba Ndigbo), our revered departed statesman, included in his Will a restriction barring Chief (Mrs.) Frances Iwuanyanwu from remarrying among other unfounded narratives which has no proofs or linked to actual facts.

“We want to state, unequivocally and for the records that this claim is entirely false and targeted at bringing the name of our revered departed statesman to disrepute and degrade his generational legacies.

“Nowhere in the Last Will and Testament of the Chief Emmanuel Chukwuemeka Iwuanyanwu (Ahaejiagamba Ndigbo), was Chief (Mrs.) Frances Iwuanyanwu, prohibited from remarrying.

“Such an assertion is not only factually incorrect but also deeply disrespectful to
his memory and the legacy of love, dignity, and truth which he lived and died
for. He was a loving, caring, and honourable man.

“It is both painful and unfortunate that during this period of mourning, when the
family of our revered, departed statesman should be allowed peace and privacy, some individuals have chosen to exploit their grief by peddling sensationalism and distortion for cheap publicity.

“Late Chief Emmanuel Chukwuemeka Iwuanyanwu (Ahaejiagamba Ndigbo), was a loving man who treated his family, especially Chief (Mrs.) Frances Iwuanyanwu with dignity and respect. He deserves better in life and in death.”

The executors added that the “baseless claim” is “not only an insult to the family, particularly Chief (Mrs.) Frances Iwuanyanwu, but a gross affront to the memory and dignity of our late
revered statesman, who is no longer here to speak for himself.”
