The FCT Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Olusola Odumosu, has advised personnel to embrace insurance policies as a critical part of their welfare.

Odumosu gave the advice during a one-day sensitization workshop organized by the Insurance unit of the command for personnel.

He said that insurance schemes were extremely important for officers and men of the corps because of the high-risk nature of the job and unique challenges faced in the line of duty.

He added that it was imperative to educate and enlighten personnel on certain insurance schemes that the federal government had put in place to ensure proper welfare.

He listed some of the insurance schemes as accident, hazard, or investment-linked plans which provided savings or pension components that support personnel during and after retirement.

“Government, as part of its moral and legal duty, has put in place policies to protect those who protect citizens by providing adequate insurance coverage as a key part of occupational welfare and human rights,’’ he said. (NAN)
