Heirs Insurance Group Celebrates 1,000 Retirees at Lagos Meeting

Heirs Insurance Group, Nigeria’s fastest-growing insurance group, reaffirmed its commitment to supporting retirees and fostering inclusion at its inaugural Heirs Insurance Retirees Meet-up.

Held on Friday, August 21, 2026, in Lagos, the event brought together more than 1,000 retirees in Lagos for a day of learning, wellness, networking and recreation.

At a time when retirees are often under-represented in conversations around economic wellbeing, healthcare and social engagement, the Heirs Insurance Retirees Meet-up created a dedicated platform that placed them at the centre of meaningful discussions and support.

The gathering featured expert-led sessions, complimentary health screenings, financial guidance and interactive engagements designed to help retirees maintain their wellbeing, manage their finances, and navigate life after active employment with confidence and dignity. It also included the provision of efficient and effective retirement planning created to support them throughout their lifetime. Participants also had the opportunity to connect with peers, share experiences and build valuable social networks within a supportive community environment.

As part of the event, Heirs Insurance Group launched a dedicated rewards programme for its annuitants, extending its relationship with retirees beyond monthly annuity payments and reinforcing its commitment to their long-term wellbeing.

Through the Heirs Insurance Rewards Programme, annuitants can access discounts from selected health and lifestyle partners.

Speaking at the event, Chief Marketing Officer, Heirs Insurance Group, Ifesinachi Okpagu, said: “Retirees have spent decades contributing to society, their families and the economy, yet they are sometimes forgotten in conversations about financial wellbeing, healthcare and quality of life. Through the Heirs Insurance Retirees Meetup and our growing Retirees Club, we are intentionally creating a platform that brings retirees together, celebrates them and gives them access to the information, support and community they need to thrive in retirement.”

The Heirs Insurance Retirees Club is a growing community for retirees and pre-retirees, providing members with practical retirement information, access to exclusive events, relevant product and service updates, partner discounts and customer milestone benefits.

Heirs Insurance Group is the insurance arm of Heirs Holdings, the leading pan-African investment company, with investments across 24 countries and four continents.

With a rapidly expanding retail footprint and an omnichannel digital presence, Heirs Insurance Group, comprising Heirs General Insurance Limited, Heirs Life Assurance Limited and Heirs Insurance Brokers, serves corporate and individual customers across Nigeria.

Heirs Insurance Group is championing financial inclusion and leading the digital insurance play in Nigeria, demonstrating its mission to democratise access to insurance.
