CIIN set to host insurance week 2026 in Lagos, from 15TH-22nd May

Chartered Insurance Institute of Nigeria (CIIN) is set to host Insurance Week 2026, a landmark eight-day programme of public engagement, industry dialogue, education, and celebration, running from 15 to 22 May 2026. Now in its second edition, Insurance Week has firmly established itself as the most significant collective effort by the Nigerian insurance industry to deepen public awareness, promote insurance adoption and celebrate industry excellence.

Building on the resounding success of the inaugural edition in Year 2025, the Year 2026 programme has been significantly expanded in scope, reach and ambition. All CIIN chapters across the country are participating simultaneously, making this the most geographically inclusive insurance awareness campaign in Nigeria’s history.

According to the statement, “This is not just a celebration. It is a call to action. Without insurance, our economy remains vulnerable and our people less secure. We have no choice but to deepen penetration and broaden participation — and Insurance Week is our vehicle for doing so.” Yetunde  Olubunmi Ilori is the 52nd President and Chairman of Council, CIIN.

The press release further stated that this year’s theme, “Insurance: A Future Redefined,” reflects a bold institutional conviction that the future of insurance in Nigeria is not merely approaching — it is being actively shaped today. The theme challenges industry practitioners, regulators, students, entrepreneurs and the general public to reimagine insurance as a dynamic, accessible and essential pillar of personal and national financial security.
