Theft And Burglary Insurance
Gbogbo ọrọ náà
A shopkeeper in Kano padlocks her store, goes home, and returns at dawn to a forced door and empty shelves. A trader two streets away simply turns his back and a stranger walks out with an unpaid phone. Both have lost goods to a thief, yet only one of them will be paid by a standard burglary policy. The difference is not luck. It is a single legal test that every claim under this class of business must pass.
This lesson shows you exactly what a theft and burglary policy covers, the precise line insurers draw between burglary and ordinary theft, the property that is protected and the property that is quietly left out, and the security precautions the insurer insists on before it will carry the risk. You will work through the calculations and the yes or no judgements that WAEC sets on this topic, and learn where candidates throw marks away.
