Speaking at the unveiling ceremony Chairman of the occasion, Dr. Cyril Ajagu, stated that the new identity is long overdue and is befitting of the Association.

President of the Chartered Insurance Institute of Nigeria, (CIIN), Mr. Edwin Igbiti noting that the identity of a group goes a long way to show the outlook to life of that group said, “The logo of any establishment summarizes the vision and mission of that entity.

Chief Executive of Pension Fund Operators Association of Nigeria (PenOp) Mr. Oguche Agudah said, “I congratulate you all on this enviable milestone”, noting that members of the Association have distinguished themselves in the field of journalism.
“Indeed with this new identity, NAIPE has shown that it does not want to be relegated to the background in insurance and pension reportage but rather want to be heard”, he added.
