Judicial Division, to bar one Catherine Ishiaka Ayim from parading herself either as a widow of late Joseph Wayas or representative of his father’s estate.
Wayas Jr claimed in the letter that the said Catherine, whom he insisted was not married to his late father, has presented herself as representative of the late Wayas’s estate to the Secretary to the Government of Federation and Secretary to Government of Cross River State, collecting humongous amounts towards the funeral of late Senate President whose body was left in a London morgue since 15 months ago.
In the letter, he averred that only his mother, Mary Abiola Aina Wayas, who also died a few months after his father, was legally married to his dad, according to native laws and customs, adding that his mother gave his dad five children. “My father legally married my mother, late Mary Abiola Aina Wayas, under the Marriage Act. [The] certificate of marriage [is] available. My mother gave my late father five children. She passed away 15 days after the demise of my father.
