One report from Statista says Insurance penetration rate in Nigeria is only 0.5% compared to that of South Africa 17%, Namibia 7%, Zimbabwe 4%.
Among Sub-Saharan Only 5 countries, only 5 countries (Central Africa, Congo, Chad, Guinea, Equatorial Guinea) are below Nigeria.
Nigerian economy is the biggest in Africa, but insurance is last but 5.
Large part of 0.5% is made of motor insurance which is compulsory in the country.
And it is also notable that even rich people are not usually buying insurance.

What are the factors of low insurance rate, do you think?
It is also questioned, while low income people have no extra money to pay for insurance, WHY the richer people are not buying insurance?

The company's move is aimed at providing customers with additional peace of mind...
The measures include providing customers, staff, and agents with a range of additional COVID-19 insurance cover at no cost to themselves, waiving pandemic exclusions written into policy language and waiving waiting period on all policies if death is by COVID-19.

Congratulation! Nairalanders.

In order to look for the best health insurance company, I checked the website traffics of insurance companies.
