Because Nigerian's hardly buy insurance,even the third party insurance na war.
Insurance don't sell in Nigeria environment.
Don't just go to life assurance.

I recently recommend a friend for a job in an insurance company as a sales advisor and the young man turned down the offer even though he is currently not working.

Sales and marketing is not easy, especially selling something like insurance in a country like Nigeria.

Imagine selling health insurance, it would look like you wish them bad health and death.

They forget that by the law of averages, these things must happen. People must get sick, cars must have accidents etc.

Nigeria isn't literate or open enough for things like this.

Again, it's leads to exploitation for the females in their bid to meet target. It can give high BP if don't meet targets, which in turn affects your pay.


The good aspect is that it can opens doors for you if properly packaged.
With it, you can gain audience with VIPs.
It increases your confidence also.

You can also meet your sugar or apple in the process.
You can fall pregnant too lol

I will ALWAYS advise people to rather remain jobless than to take insurance job in Nigeria. As fraudulent as GNLD is, it's more profitable than insurance jobs (I have experienced both).

Firstly, insurance has had bad stories in the past. Many people have been scammed (though the regulation is a lot better now).

Secondly, many people that embraced insurance (both now and then) were not told the entire truth. Hence they ended up losing their money and the claim they supposed to get (if you default in your premium beyond the agreed grace period, forget any claim).

Thirdly, People have limited knowledge about insurance. They don't know that you can "save" your money with insurance companies the same way you can save in commercial banks, with some added benefits (firstly, you are covered, insurance wise during the period your money is there, and insurance has the HIGHEST return on investment in Nigeria, you could get as high as 17-30% return. unlike commercial banks that will be stealing your money).

Apart from the above factors, insurance companies are looking for cheap labour. There is no marketing team or vehicle for mobility or marketing. You will walk the streets till you literally see your soul departing your body. Tell me, who will invest his millions or even thousands with someone with bent shoes and sweat? If insurance works as the marketers (sometimes they use fancy names like risk advisor. lol. to attract "JJCs" claim, why are they working under one of the most heinous conditions?

Like I said, it better to be separating weevils from Beans every morning than to work for insurance companies.

Did you just say Insurance?
How many Nigerians dey do insurance?
Let's even assume they agree to do insurance sales. Do the insurance sales reps themselves have any insurance policy covering them? If anything happens to them during the course of duty, will the so called insurance company take full responsibility of damages done to their reps? That's why you see them recruiting sales people every month in their multitude. And those ones work for a max of 5months and then disappear when their ankles don dey touch ground.

Besides, how can you give what you don't have?
You wey no get any insurance policy wan sell insurance policy give another person. God help you if the potential client is a woman, her first question would be... 'So which insurance policy did you yourself subscribe to'? You go just open mouth dey smile like ode. With your sweaty shirt after sun don hammer you beta beating.

I no fit talk again abeg

You're just one of the senseless Nigerians that will never have a company if you continue with this line of thought. Go and check most of the foreign companies, everything they use from their buildings to water dispenser is insured. That way, if there is a need to vacate the premise in case of an insurgency or instability, they'll just move with their passport. The insurance company pays back every dime. Please, start thinking big!
