Omosehin, congratulated Jaha for his appointment as Chairman of House Committee on Insurance and Actuarial Matters and craved more supports especially in ensuring that the Consolidated Insurance Industry Bill, received the needed attention that would lead to its passage into an Act.

He promised to ensure that all federal assets were consolidated for easy insurance coverage and that he would work assiduously to see that adequate budgetary provisions were made for insurances of all government’s assets.
