“This training further serves to reiterate the commitment of the IICC to achieving its objectives of Insurance awareness and adoption in Nigeria. With Insurance, you have the ultimate keys to live and work with freedom. A lot of Insurance products and offerings are not being patronised and enforced because of inadequate understanding of insurance Laws, we are passing across invaluable knowledge to the participants at the seminar that will aid the dissemination of their duties.
“The training on compulsory insurance has become a fixture in the Calendar of the Insurance Industry. Last year, it was held in Kano and this time, it is going to be held in Benin, Edo State. We will continue to rotate the regions where the trainings will hold in a bid to ensure that the message reaches every nook and cranny of the country,” he added in the statement.
