2019 election: Insurers seek peace, good governance to promote growth

2019 election: Insurers seek peace, good governance to promote growth
As the 2019 Presidential election that returned President Mohammadu Buhari takes its toll on the economy and public discourse, insurance practitioners have called for peace and good governance.
They believe that these are necessary to keep the country on the part of growth and development.
Sola Tinubu, president, Nigerian Council of Registered Insurance Brokers (NCRIB), made the call in Lagos during the Council’s February Members Evening hosted by Linkage Assurance plc. 
Tinubu said the pursuit of peace and good governance for sustainable development should be addressed frontally.
“Without this, business environment may continually remain in jeopardy,” he said.
While congratulating Nigerians for exercising their right to vote during the elections, he called on the relevant authorities to address the dangers that might work against the success of the remaining part of the elections.
“This event provides me an opportunity to join many meaningful Nigerians to congratulate everyone that voted during the last election, this is our civic responsibility as citizens of Nigeria and I hope, that at the end of the day we will all have the desired peace and progress in the country,” he said.
