Anchor Insurance Partners OOPL
Anchor Insurance Company Limited has partner with the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library on its OOPL Wildlife Park (WLP) “Adopt An Animal” programme by adopting a Lion tagged “Anchor Lion” in the Wildlife.
With this partnership, the company has created the opportunity to contribute to the conversation of local animal species and encourage their reproduction and preservation of wildlife which will further encourage local tourism.
This was contained in a press released signed by the Company Head, Brand & Corporate Communications, Jamiu Osoba and made available to journalists in Lagos.
President Olusegun Obasanjo while receiving the delegation, announced to the delegation the plan to insure the animals in the Wildlife Park against the third party liabilities as it is essential to protect the visitors to the park from any unanticipated eventualities.
He stated further, “Just in case somebody puts his hand in a lion cage or a lion breaks out. It is very important to have insurance despite all the barricades and cages we have in the park”.
In his speech, the leader of the delegation, Mr. Augustine Ebose, Executive Director, Business Development & Marketing, thanked the former president for meeting with the team and most importantly for the sanity he brought to the financial industry through recapitalization and the local content act enacted during his administration.
“Insurance industry was undertaken by foreign underwriters on behalf of the local insurance companies due to lack of financial capacity before recapitalization and enactment of local content law during your administration; but the local content act brought an uprise to the industry; therefore we are now underwriting about 75% of local content.
As one of the major service delivery companies in the Insurance industry, we want to thank you for this because we are your product” he declared.
