Miss Insurance dance for Friday

businessday-icon

Insurance practitioners are warming up for another opportunity to select the Industry Queen, through an annual dance competition that has become an unbroken tradition. It’s a platform for women empowerment in the insurance sector through social engineering. The contestants, who are usually young single ladies, are emboldened by the courage to participate in the pageant while also developing the spirit of sportsmanship and tolerance engendered by the keen contest.

The 2013 edition of the dance will take place at the K & G Events Centre along Kudirat Abiola Way, Oregun in Lagos, on Friday 15th March, 2013. With the star prize of a Kia Picanto car and the glamour of a one-year reign, the contest has in the last four years attracted higher quality contestants. Miss Onyeka Adigwe, the outgoing queen, who is an employee of Goldlink Insurance plc, said it had been a rewarding experience and an opportunity to flag the industry banner as its ambassador for a period of one year.

The star prize is a Kia Picanto Car and has been sponsored by Unity Kapital Assurance plc while prizes for the First Runner-up and Second runner-up have been sponsored by Standard Alliance Life and African Alliance Insurance plc, respectively.
