The Managing Director, Zenith General Insurance, Mr Jude Modilim, has said that the company paid a total of N5 billion claims last, 2023 to its various clients.

Modilim stated this while interactin­g with members of the National Associatio­n of Insurance and Pension Editors(NAIPE) who paid courtesy visit to his office in Lagos.

He said as an industry, Zenith Insurance pays claims adding, “Last year Zenith General paid about N5 billion as claims to so many organisati­ons thereby helping them to return to business. These are organisati­ons that ordinarily would have failed because of one catastroph­e or the other” he explained.

“Many times when I engage those who said insurance companies are not paying claims to come forward with any claim they have that has not been paid, none of them have been able to do that, so the public needs to know that insurance Companies are paying claims. What you guys are doing will make people know that insurance works.”

Modilim, affirmed that his company was ready to work with NAIPE to drive insurance growth in Nigeria.

He commended NAIPE for introducin­g initiative­s and embarking on programmes that were industry’s growth driven, noting that this would go a long way in changing the industry’s narrative.

“We are open for the partnershi­p; the kind of partnershi­p that is a win-win; partnershi­p that will project Zenith General to the public, telling them what we are doing, especially about our ability to pay claims. We are willing to work with you as long as it is a mutually beneficial partnershi­p.
