He charged the inductees to be good ambassadors of the profession by upholding the code of ethics and acting with the highest professional standards and integrity.

He added that, the new status comes with certain responsibilities and expectations, imploring them to adhere to relevant laws and regulations governing the affairs of the industry.

Speaking on transformation, Onifade made a case for a joint vision statement by the insurance industry.

According to him, underwriters need to do more to encourage Nigerians to adopt insurance as a lifestyle.

He said: “I would like to advocate for the adoption of a common Vision Statement for our industry. I recommend an industry Vision Statement that reads like this: ‘To make insurance a lifestyle in Nigeria.’ This should be adopted by all our industry players – insurance companies, brokers, loss adjusters etc. When insurance becomes a lifestyle, every Nigerian would remember to add insurance premium to his budget list.”

While commending the efforts of the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM), CIIN and industry bodies, such as; the Nigerian Insurers Association (NIA) and National Council of Registered Insurance Brokers (NCRIB), towards deepening insurance penetration in the country, he called for more efforts across board.
