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.

Entrepreneurship: The Lonely Road to Sustainable Financial Future (2)

I honestly did not plan to pen Part 2 of this article (above) l did last week. But the response from our readers was overwhelming and many requested a follow-up. The message is very clear: Many Nigerians are eager to leave paid employment behind and plot their own destiny on their own terms. Even with all the bumps and spikes in the Nigerian business environment staked against entrepreneurs and small business owners, many still consider the Entrepreneur Route as the best route to their financial stability and future. A job is a job. A business is a business! It would be pertinent at this stage to look at key factors that would be of profound interest to existing and potential entrepreneurs.
