Fire Insurance
Muhtasari
Fire ruins more Nigerian businesses in an afternoon than almost any other single event: a market razed in Kano, a warehouse gutted in Aba, a block of shops lost in Onitsha. Fire insurance is the cover that rebuilds after that afternoon. Yet the word fire has a surprisingly strict meaning on a policy, and a claim can fail simply because the loss was heat without flame, or a fire that stayed exactly where it was supposed to be.
In this lesson you will learn what a standard fire policy actually promises, the three perils it always covers, and the famous three-part test that decides whether a loss even counts as a fire. You will see which special perils can be bolted on for extra premium, which perils are excepted forever, and exactly whose property fire insurance is written for. Master this and you can settle any fire scenario an examiner sets.
