The Commissioner of the National Insurance Commission (NIC), Ms Lydia Lariba Bawa, has underscored the need for Ghanaians to subscribe to insurance policies.

She reiterated that accidents occur unexpectedly, hence the need for people to take cover in insurance.

She adds that many people did not recognise the need for insurance until they encountered accidents, a situation she described as disturbing.

Ms Bawa was speaking at the power breakfast meeting of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce Ghana (CCCG) in Accra early this week.

“Incomes are low and, therefore, having an insurance policy does not fall on the priority list of most people.”
