1,367,894 1,533,49

The delay in settlement of outstanding claims that are over 90 days was as a result of late submission of necessary documents and data on the part of the claimants. Also, the need to verify the veracity of the claims contributed to this delay.

Shortfall of existing ₦5billion regulatory minimum paid-up capital of the Company by ₦6.075 billion as at 31 June, 2024;
Accumulated losses of ₦17.075 billion (2023: ₦22.012 billion) as at 31 DECEMBER, 2023 which resulted in negative equity of the Company of ₦1.075 billion as at 31 DECEMBER, 2024;

iii The high impairment allowances over the years on the Company's investment properties suggesting possible inability to realize them and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business; and

iv. Significantly reduced staff workforce and low morale of staff

Management is however executing mitigating procedures and are working assiduously to inject fresh capital through a recapitalization and business restructuring plan involving major prospective investors.
