“AIICO, born in the heart of Nigeria, has been a witness and a participant in this nation’s remarkable journey. We’ve grown amidst the oil boom’s promises of the 1970s and adapted during the economic downturns of the 1980s. Our strength was tested during the periods of military rule and the struggle for democracy, yet we emerged stronger, demonstrating the same resilience that defines our nation.”
“In these six decades, AIICO has not only survived but thrived, adapting to changes, overcoming challenges, and seizing opportunities. Our growth mirrors the indomitable spirit of Nigeria – a spirit of perseverance, innovation, and a relentless pursuit of excellence,” he said.
