Coronation Life Assurance Empowers Over 300 Retirees and Pre-Retirees with Financial Literacy at Lagos Forum

Lagos, Nigeria – November 6, 2026 – Coronation Life Assurance Limited has reaffirmed its commitment to promoting financial literacy and retirement security in Nigeria through an exclusive Retirees and Pre-Retirees Forum held on Thursday, November 5, 2026, at the Lagos State Universal Basic Education Board (LASUBEB), Maryland, Lagos.

The event, which attracted over 300 retirees and prospective retirees, provided a platform for participants to gain practical insights into effective retirement planning, financial independence, and sustainable income management during their post-employment years.

Recognising the financial challenges many Nigerians face after leaving active service, the forum was designed to address one of the most pressing concerns among retirees: maintaining financial stability and a comfortable standard of living despite the transition from regular employment income to retirement benefits.

A major highlight of the event was an insightful presentation on the role of annuities in providing financial security and guaranteed income throughout retirement. Participants were educated on how annuity solutions can help retirees manage their finances more effectively, reduce the risk of outliving their retirement savings, and enjoy greater peace of mind during their golden years.

Delivering the keynote address, Nojeem Orekan, Head of Technical at Coronation Life Assurance Limited, provided valuable insights into the importance of proactive retirement planning and the need for individuals to adopt financial solutions that guarantee long-term income security.

His presentation emphasised the significance of making informed financial decisions before and during retirement, particularly in an economic environment where inflation, rising living costs, and increasing life expectancy continue to place pressure on retirement savings.

The forum also provided an opportunity for participants to deepen their understanding of annuity products, ask questions, and engage directly with financial experts on practical strategies for achieving a financially secure retirement.

Beyond the educational sessions, Coronation Life Assurance incorporated a variety of engaging activities to create a memorable and rewarding experience for attendees. These included complimentary health checks, interactive games such as Spin the Wheel, and other activities designed to promote wellness, encourage participation, and foster meaningful connections among participants.

The inclusion of health and wellness activities reinforced the company’s recognition that a fulfilling retirement requires not only financial stability but also physical well-being and an active lifestyle.

The Retirees and Pre-Retirees Forum forms part of Coronation Life Assurance’s broader commitment to advancing financial literacy, improving public understanding of insurance and retirement solutions, and empowering Nigerians to make informed decisions about their financial futures.

Through initiatives such as this, the company continues to demonstrate its dedication to bridging the financial knowledge gap and promoting greater adoption of structured retirement income solutions that can help individuals preserve their financial independence after active service.

Coronation Life Assurance remains committed to developing innovative life insurance and retirement solutions that address the evolving needs of Nigerians across different stages of life, while supporting the broader objective of building a more financially resilient society.
