The winners emerged at the 2023 Almond Insurance Industry Awards and Consumers’ Nite held Friday last week through a random selection process.
The winners who have never had any other insurance cover except motor insurance were happy to be granted free cover against personal accident and liability.
Insurfeel an initiative developed by the Publisher of Inspenonline, Chuks Udo Okonta, was designed in line with – ‘The Suya Seller Strategy’ – which entails tasting before buying. It stemmed from a research conducted which showed that people who have had positive experience on how insurance works seem to believe and easily embraced the system. This research therefore, necessitates the need to extend insurance experience to more people so as to deepen insurance penetration, provide safety and enhance insurance industry’s profitability.
Insurfeel is targeted towards specific individuals, such as; Students in secondary schools, teachers and people with distinct impact on lives and the society. They would be selected due to their outstanding performance and contributions to human growth.
The initiative is opened to people committed to philanthropy. It is my belief that insurance remains one of the best instruments to fight poverty and make the society a comfortable place for Mankind.
