Reacting to Nisimah’s demise, Deputy Commissioner for Insurance, National Insurance Commission (NAICOM), Mr. Sunday Thomas, described Nsiemah’s death as a bad news.
“For such a young man to die it is a bad news and it is so sad for both the company and the family. For the company, it is very sad most especially now that Anchor Insurance is going through transition and for the family because he is still a young man, too early to die and leave his family behind.”
“We in NAICOM we wish the family the fortitude to bear the loss,” Thomas said.
In his reaction, the immediate past Managing Director, Anchor Insurance Company Limited, Mr. Mayowa Adeduro, said the news of Nsimah’s death is a very sad one.
“I handed over to him in December, 2017. We started working together since 2008, struggling to ensure the survival of the company. Before I handed over to him, he was off and on from the hospital but in February 2018, I got the information that he has been hospitalized and later I was informed about his demise. It is so sad.
“I wish to commiserate with the family and my prayer for them is that the Almighty God should console them and bring joy back to the family and I want the family to know that anything that happen God knows why it happens. He said in every situation we should give him thanks but if there is any element of human hands in his death, God the just judge will judge.”
