Since its establishment in 1983, Colenson Brokers has grown to become a household name in Nigeria’s insurance sector. Founded by the esteemed Dr. Michael Olawale-Cole (CON, FNIM, CNIM, B.Sc. (Hons.), DBA, FCIB, FloD), the company has built a reputation for professionalism, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to client satisfaction.
