Mr. Omosehin underscored the insurance sector’s critical role in Nigeria’s economic growth and development, as he briefed the delegation on key sector developments, notably the enactment of the Nigeria Insurance Industry Reform Act (NIIRA) 2025, which consolidates outdated laws and introduces landmark reforms.
