The 2013 Fitness Walk of the Chartered
Institute of Insurance Nigeria (CIIN) takes place on Saturday May 11, in Lagos
but also expected to take place at the institute's branches nationwide.
This is contained in a statement signed
by the Institute Head, Corporate Affairs, Joseph Obah, who revealed that the
walk has become an annual event with vast opportunities for insurance awareness
hence it is also tagged the Insurance Industry road show.
According to the statement, “This
year's edition will commence at the National Stadium, Surulere, to terminate at
the Niger insurance premises along the busy Ikorodu Road. Not less than 2000
insurance practitioners are expected to participate in the walk wearing the
colours of the Chartered Insurance Institute of Nigeria. The participants are
also expected to display the banners of their respective companies while also
distributing handbills containing information on their companies and their
offerings.”
Meanwhile, Director General of CIIN,
Mr. Adegboyega Adepegba said it is an event no insurance company will like to
miss, stating that it remains a veritable platform for reaching out to members
of the insuring public in a most unique way.
Adepegba also said that the Fitness
Walk provides ample opportunities for physical fitness, especially for
executives who spend lot of time with business schedules.
The CIIN President, Dr. Wole
Adetimehin, therefore called on insurance executives to participate in the walk,
stating that it is always a worthwhile experience.
Adetimehin also said the walk cannot
be ignored for whatever excuses except for unavoidable reasons.
The Institute however assured that
attractive prizes await exceptional participants at the destination while the
carnival like party offers immense attraction as usual.
