Sunday Thomas, NAICOM Boss

Having acted for almost 10 months, President Muhammadu Buhari has confirmed Mr. Sunday Thomas as the substantive Commissioner for Insurance/Chief Executive Officer, National Insurance Commission (NAICOM).

Mr. Thomas replaced immediate past commissioner for Insurance/CEO, Mallam Mohammed Kari, as Acting Commissioner for insurance/CEO of the National Insurance Commission in July 2019.

A statement from the office of the Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, signed by Yunusa Tanko Abdullahi (Special Adviser, Media and Communications), affirmed the confirmation Saturday.

Thomas, who has over three decades of experience in the industry as an operator and regulator, was appointed Deputy Commissioner in charge of technical matters by President Buhari in April 2017.

He was formerly Director-General (DG) of the Nigerian Insurers Association (NIA) in 2010.

The President also approved the appointments of two board members for Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC), Mrs. Ya’ana Talib Yaro as the Non Executive Director representing the North East, and Mrs. Diana O. Okonta as Non Executive Director, to fill the slot for the South South.

The appointments take immediate effect.
