Mr. Tope Smart, Group Managing Director/CEO of NEM Insurance Plc says the annual CIIN Fitness Walk has the potential to drive insurance awareness and penetration in the country.

Smart, who was represented at the recent CIIN Fitness Walk by Mr. Andrew Ikekhua, an Executive Director at the company, said by embarking on the fitness walk, “we are deepening insurance penetration and also generating more awareness and showcasing the value of insurance to the general public.”

The NEM GMD commended the leadership of the Institute for organising such wonderful event year in, year out, which aside of improving “our physical and mental well-being, also affords us the opportunity to unwind, market our various companies & products to the public, socialise and network among ourselves for the overall benefit of the industry.”

He enjoined all the participants “to mingle and share ideas among ourselves, so that we can enjoy the benefits of this event and to foster synergy and harmony among us all present here. As we continue this program, I urge you all to dance, sit back, relax and enjoy the events.”

“We are very delighted to do so with every sense of humility and deep sense of honour and we are ever ready to host you all, anytime.”

An Industry Roadmap for Next Commissioner for Insurance

Considering the contests Nigeria has experienced to have candidates elected into political offices this year, I would sometimes wish that other offices, though professional but equally political, undergo such contests involving manifesto-based campaigns and broad consultation with stakeholders. More than the just concluded elections, the emergence of a new Commissioner for Insurance (CFI) and helmsman of National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) through appointment by the President matters and should matter for many Nigerians. This is because the Nigerian insurance industry bears the promise of employment to increasing number of young job seekers, the opportunity of long term investible funds as we enhance our infrastructural base and the hope for improvement in the management of the emergent risks associated with decisions concerning our national economy.
