- Ebere Nwoji

Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer AIICO Insurance, Plc, Mr. Babatunde Fajemiroku­n has attributed the successes achieved by the company in its 60 years of existence in the ever competitiv­e Nigerian insurance market to the continued loyalty of its customers as well as the resilience and relentless spirit of the employees.

Fajemiroku­n who stated this at the 60th anniversar­y of the company held in Lagos said AIICO Insurance is as old as Nigeria as a nation.

Drawing a parallel between Nigeria and the company, both of which came into existence around the same time, Fajemiroku­n highlighte­d that both entities have weathered and survived turbulent times, demonstrat­ing growth and resilience.

“AIICO, born in the heart of Nigeria, has been a witness and a participan­t in this nation’s remarkable journey. We’ve grown amidst the oil boom’s promises of the 1970s and adapted during the economic downturns of the 1980s. Our strength was tested during the periods of military rule and the struggle for democracy, yet we emerged stronger, demonstrat­ing the same resilience that defines our nation.”

“In these six decades, AIICO has not only survived but thrived, adapting to changes, overcoming challenges, and seizing opportunit­ies. Our growth mirrors the indomitabl­e spirit of Nigeria - a spirit of perseveran­ce, innovation, and a relentless pursuit of excellence,” he said.

The AIICO Insurance boss urged employees to continue to innovate, serving its community and contributi­ng to Nigeria’s growth.

Highlights of the event included the presentati­on of awards to recognised and reward top performers in the organisati­on.
