Image
As an Insurance Advisor with one of the leading Insurance companies with 26 years of experience in Insurance business in Nigeria, I find it quite disheartening to find out that Nigeria, the giant of Africa has less than 1% penetration rate in Insurance. But then, being a Nigerian myself and knowing how very religious we can be, most of us would rather pray unfortunate situations like death away than plan to prevent the unpleasant struggles those we will leave behind have to go through due to our lack of preparation for death, the inevitable.
