Workers in
32 states are presently not covered by group life insurance, a report by the
National Pension Commission (PenCom) has said.
The
commission in its first quarter 2015 report stated that only Rivers; Osun;
Niger and Lagos states employees are presently covered in the scheme.
Although the
Federal Government had embraced the scheme, it has refused to show leadership, by
ensuring premiums are paid as at when due.
According to
the former Commissioner for Insurance Fola Daniel, going by the No Premium No
Cover policy, Federal Government’s workers presently have no insurance cover
due to nonpayment of this year’s premium.
