IWD 2025: NIA Supports ADHERI to Empower Women

In commemoration of the International Women’s Day 2025, the Nigerian Insurers Association (NIA) has extended support to the Advocate for Health, Rights, and Youths Initiative (ADHERI) to empower women in Nigeria.

The support to ADHERI is a testament to NIA’s dedication to empowering women and promoting gender equality.

According to Mrs. Bola Odukale, Director-General of NIA, the association is committed to supporting initiatives and partnering with organisations that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Odukale said this year’s International Women’s Day theme, “Accelerate Action,” resonates deeply with the NIA’s values and mission.

“We believe that empowering women is essential to creating a more inclusive and equitable society.

“This partnership is a step towards creating a more inclusive and equitable society, where women have equal opportunities to thrive and succeed,” the NIA DG added.

Mr. Emmanuel Etim, Founder/Executive Director of ADHERI, commended the NIA under the leadership of Mrs. Odukale for its support.

Etim also acknowledged the efforts of the NIA DG and other women leaders who are championing the cause of the female gender and promoting a more equitable society across various fields.

“We are grateful for the NIA’s support and commitment to empowering women. Together, we can create a more just and equitable society.

“Today, we gather not as individuals confined by borders, but as global advocates united by a shared vision: to amplify the voices of women, shatter barriers, and to create a world where equality and justice are the cornerstones of our societies,” Etim added.

The conference, which attracted professional women from various fields, featured career advancement seminars, leadership and communication skills training, and free one-year life insurance coverage for lucky winners.

Other activities included makeup training and networking sessions, among others.
