Universal Insurance, one of Nigeria’s insurance firms, is undergoing a bold transformation as it positions itself for stronger industry dominance, following an impressive financial year and the appointment of a new managing director.
Now, under the leadership of Japhet Ogueri Duru, who was appointed managing director and CEO on January 10, 2025, the company is targeting even greater heights.
Duru brings over three decades of experience in underwriting, risk analysis, claims, and broking. During an interview with the Sun newspaper earlier this year, he said he was “bringing excellent service delivery, dedication to service, extensive experience, and a strong focus on training and development.”
