Harvest of Awards:

L-R: Mr. Olayiwola Olabisi, Chief Financial Officer; Mrs. Eyoanwan, Head, Human Capital Management; Mr. Olasupo Sogelola; Executive Director, Technical & Operations; Mr. Jide Orimolade, MD/CEO; Mrs. Olufolake Afolabi, Chief Technical Officer; Mr. Steve Ajudua; Chief Marketing Officer Law Union & Rock Insurance Plc.

Law Union & Rock Insurance Plc has announced gross premium written of N3.5 billion as at September 30, 2017 just as it has paid out over N1.25 billion as claims to deserving clients in the same period.

Mr. Jide Orimolade, Managing Director and Chief Executive of Law Union & Rock Insurance said part of its corporate objective is to create niche for ‘ourselves in the industry. We are not unmindful of the competition which is characterised with price war in the industry, but we believe we could navigate through by differentiation and best service delivery.’

Orimolade said the result indicates that the company is on a growth and better path, ‘although we have not reach our goal, but continuous improved result show we are going to get there. We will not relent in this course of getting to that pinnacle. We encourage the media to join us, especially in creating awareness and also marketing insurance. And when you do that you should be fair to keep propagating the company with good service delivery like Law Union where the customers can get best service.’

The N714bn Bailout: Matters Arising

It was good news the other morning when news filtered out that the federal government has graciously given cash-strapped states a bailout of approximately N714 billion to settle outstanding salaries and other forms of wages to workers in their states. To the workers, it was probably the best news of the year 2015, given that some that had fallen into arrears for upwards of seven to nine months. To ordinary Nigerians not directly affected by the salary crisis in the affected states, the bailout represents a moment of relief from the plight of the workers. For the state governments, the bailout is only a temporary measure to relieve them of the scandalous inability to meet their obligations to workers in the states.
