Early this year, a Nairametrics report stated that the company will be unable to take new businesses except to maintain the existing ones in its portfolio. This was as a result of the suspension placed on the firm by the National Insurance Commission (NAICOM). 

NAICOM suspended the firm because of its failure to appoint a substantive Managing Director, failure to secure reinsurance treaty, among other issues. 

The company however denied the media reports and demanded retractions. The firm stated that on February 15, 2018, it appointed Mr. Babatunde Oshadiya as Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of the company and the proposal for his appointment was submitted to NAICOM for approval.
