Jide bought his car last year and now there is the need to renew the -76-. The first time he went to Mr. Olumide, the -77-, he was advised to -78- a -79- rather than a -80- cover. Mr Olumide had carefully explained the merits and demerits of both types, which included the fact that one was far more -81- than the other.
Now Jide has cause to smile because of his entitlement to a no-claim -82- Being a careful owner-driver, he had not been involved in any -83- during the period. Unfortunately, the same could not be said for his friend, Jackson, whose car was a total -84- after a -85- with a truck. He could not even make any claim for -86-, because he was not -87- at all

Jackson’s experience clearly points to the need for insurance -88- to educate prospective -89- on the benefits of insurance.

The persistent fuel -90- in the country paralysed all aspects of life, especially in the cities. The streets were often -91- of the usual hustle and -92- that characterized city life. A visitor might erroneously think it was a public holiday until he came near a -93-. There he would find long -94- of haphazardly parked vehicles waiting to buy the non-existent fuel from the idle -95-.

Another look at the bus stops would reveal groups of people anxiously trying to get to their places of work. Even car owners used the few -96- buses, the drivers of which had increased the -97- by anything from 100 to 500 percent.

Though this could be very annoying, -98- should not blame the drivers for the -99- rates because the drivers had to pay through the nose to procure fuel at the -100-.
