Speaking at a press conference in Lagos, the Chairman of the Awards Panel of Judges Ms. Soares, said that winners in the various categories will be based on the decision of voters which makes up 10%, the Judges’ decision also forms 10% and the collated Data from the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) makes up 80%.

In a bid to continue to maintain the Integrity of the Awards, and reduce the incidences of duplicate voting, the Panel has agreed that a One Time Password (OTP) be deployed in the voting process this year. To this end, she implored nominees to encourage their clients and the general public to visit the Awards Website: (www.almondinsuranceindustryawards.com) to cast their votes.

Although voting is FREE, companies as well as individual clients can vote just once in each of the categories.

The voting process will be closed on the 5th of September 2025 to allow for final processing by the Awards Panel of Judges before the Awards Nite on the 7th of November 2025 at the Stable Event Centre 45, Bode Thomas Street Surulere Lagos where winners will be announced in an atmosphere of glitz and excitement.

The Annual Almond Insurance Industry Awards and Consumers’ Nite was instituted to reward the “Can Do Spirit” of the men and women in the various arms of the insurance industry who strive daily to sell insurance products and services in Nigeria despite the myriad of challenges in the business environment and the low acceptability of Insurance in Nigeria.

The Awards which started in 2018 has grown to become the biggest night for insurance practitioners, policy makers, entertainers and the general public to have fun in a relaxed atmosphere.

The epoch-making event will as always feature top rated Nigerian entertainers in music, comedy and dance.

The Show Host this year is the Legendary Nollywood Actor Segun Arinze.

VOTE NOW because Voting ends on the 5th of September
