The Forum according to Faith Ughwode, CEO, Almond Productions Limited is bigger and better this year because of the scope of participants who are drawn from trade groups in the formal and informal sectors, federal and state government agencies and parastatals, officers from the various law enforcement agencies who have dealings with the enforcement of insurance in Nigeria.

The Insurance Industry and Consumers Nite is a social platform aimed at demystifying the insurance industry and connecting with the entertainment industry to create awareness about the importance and benefits of insurance in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.

The event also aims to eradicate the negative notion about insurers being ‘collectors of premium’ who don’t give anything back to those who don’t suffer loss. There is no doubt that the entertainment industry is a sure way to open up the insurance industry, especially the millennials  on social media.
