Yemi Solade Enrolls With NEIHIS

The Nigerian entertainment industry recently has seen the death of actors, who unable to foot their medical bills, were succumbed to complications from their ill-health. Some faced with critical conditions were forced seek funds from the public.

To guide against a similar occurrence, multiple award winning veteran Nollywood actor Yemi Solade has joined the list of popular Nigerian entertainers and practitioners who have enrolled on the Nigerian Entertainment Industry Health Insurance Scheme (NEIHIS.)

The thespian, who also doubles as an ambassador to the insurance scheme, was recently presented his NEIHIS ID card and other relevant care access documents.

During his presentation, Yemi commended the conveners of the scheme for their efforts towards initiating and ensuring the success of a well thought-out health care scheme purposely created for the entertainment industry.

“I commend your efforts towards the success of a laudable project of this nature. It is pertinent for us as entertainers to take a cue from this and ensure we tap into an initiative designed to safeguard our health and prevent needless tragedies in our beloved industry.”

NEIHIS is a private customized scheme designed for the entertainment industry and endorsed by the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS). It’s an initiative of the Nigerian Entertainment Industry Lecture Series (NEILS).
