Motor Insurance Policies
Motor and home insurance policies protect your vehicle, property, and personal liability against
unexpected losses, with third-party motor insurance being legally mandatory in Nigeria.
- Third-Party Only: This is the legal minimum requirement in Nigeria. It covers your legal
liability
for death, bodily injury, or property damage caused to others by your vehicle.
- Third-Party Fire and Theft: Adds coverage for your own vehicle if it is stolen or damaged by
fire or lightning, alongside basic third-party liability.
- Comprehensive: Provides the widest protection. It covers damage to your own car from
accidents, fire, theft, and vandalism, plus third-party liabilities and optional add-ons like flood or
riot damage.
Property insurance
is a broad term for policies that provide financial reimbursement or liability protection to property
owners or renters in the event of damage, theft, or third-party injuries on the premises. In Nigeria,
property insurance covers a range of risks, from personal residential protection to specialized
commercial assets. Notably, under the Nigerian Insurance Act 2003, certain forms like occupiers'
liability insurance are mandatory for public and multi-occupancy buildings.
