National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) and the Katsina State government have inaugurated a technical committee on sensitization and implementation of compulsory insurance and the Takaful insurance model in Katsina State.

The inauguration took place yesterday in Katsina State.

The Committee is being chaired by the Commissioner for Commerce in the State, Muktar Gidado Abdulkadir and the co-chairman is the Executive Chairman, Katsina State Internal Revenue Service, Mustapha Mohammed Sirajo.

Other members of the Committee are representatives of the NAICOM, Office of the SSG, Office of the Head of Service in the State, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Health and other relevant agencies.

While inaugurating the Technical Committee, Governor Aminu Masari, stated that the initiative to introduce Takaful insurance is a welcome development, pointing out that it will serve as an alternative, especially as it will attract people of the state, who are left out of the Insurance protection net, due to religious or cultural barriers.

He  assured the NAICOM of Katsina State Government’s full support in the development of insurance in the State.
