Mutaultope:God bless you for saying the real truth! This means that no tenant can file a claim in the event of a damaging incident the building. Only the landlord or building owner can file a claim over his property with the insurance company. But the landlord can and will push the insurance cost overhead to the tenants. Is there a law that forbids this? No! Can there be a law? No. It is a permanent loophole. The landlord will simply claim he is increasing house rent. He won't state why in actual specifics or what we exactly he wants to use the higher cost to defray. Govt can't stop him because the same govt are collecting one levy or another on the building. God forbid, God forbid, but it finally happens there was a huge fire, property destroyed. Landlord files his claim with insurance. After maybe 3 months or so back and forth process, insurance pays 100m payout to the Landlord. By the loopholes, the Landlord is not mandated or responsible by law to pay the tenants money. No be him put fire na. But the insurance money is also not mandated for him to build a new house and retain the tenants. So he can simply cashout and go to America to start a new life, while the tenants are left out in the cold. I hope you can understand my grievance with how govt makes useless halfbake policy they never sit down properly to think through to know the encapsulating effect on the common man. They just sit down on mount Olympus and dish out laws like Zeus. These [human] gods must be crazy indeed 2 Likes |

This is a welcome development. For those who don't know about insurance, saying landlords will increase their house rent, this is for the safety of the landlords, the premium is paid once in a year, the amount paid as premium is not up to a quarter of the cost of the building. If my landlord tries that with me. We go fight, in fact na court go follow us settle am, cuz if his house collapsed and he collects compensation, he will not give me anything. So why should I be the one to bear the brunt of his future enjoyment. |

The compulsory insurance for car is third-party and intended to come to your aid when you damage another person's vehicle, comprehensive insurance is not. But the intention behind this obnoxious policy is to further generate revenue for Lagos state, I assure you. chloride6: |

Openbusiness3: You are so right , but the Government is only wants to implement laws that should have been implemented a long time ago If as a tenant , you are able to rent an apartment for 9 million per annum that means you will not be having 200k worth of personal properties ...... it is wise to consider having an insurance cover on the properties I case of eventuality . |

Openbusiness3: Insurance isn't that expensive, Bro. No Insurance company will even charge 1% of the value of the house. Building insurance rates are anywhere between 0.2-0.6% of the value of the house. Modified: i just saw that the Insurance in question is mainly a Liability Insurance. That said, applicable rates should be around 1% of the value Insured. |

MondayOsunbor: The policy is known as Builders Liability Insurance. It is one of the compulsory insurance policies in Nigeria but unfortunately, it is not being strictly enforced. Specifically, the Insurance Act of 2003, Section 64, requires every owner or contractor of any building under construction with more than two floors to take out an insurance policy to cover his liability arising from construction risks such as his negligence or that of his servants, agents or consultants, which may result in death, bodily injury or property damage of workers on site or members of the public. This insurance policy also covers liability for collapse of buildings under construction. We have many challenges in this part of the world. The priority of those in charge of building plans approval and supervision of buildings under construction is not safety of lives and property. That is probably one of the reasons why the authors of Builders Liability Insurance came up, not only with the policy, but made it compulsory. The other reason is that third parties are involved. Ordinarily, Builders Liability Insurance should be the last bus stop in efforts to protect the interest of third parties. The building approval process and oversight functions of the regulatory authorities should the first lines of defence of third party interest. But in Nigeria, pecuniary interest, both official and personal, take precedence. In almost all the cases of collapsed buildings under construction in Nigeria, it is just possible that none had a Builders Liability Insurance. Where does that leave the victims who suffered bodily injuries? What happens to victims who lost their property? Finally what becomes of the fate of families who lost their bread winners? These are what Builders Liability Insurance is meant to take care of: to ensure that third parties who suffer losses in building collapse do not suffer double tragedy by going uncompensated. 1 Like |
