Noting that Eritrea is one of the top 10 countries that sustain high car accidents, Mr. Zereu explained that most of the accidents occur due to the faults of drivers. He further pointed out that NICE provides service in all fields of insurance, including life, car, workers, air planes, ships, property and animals. The manager indicated that at present 52% of the Corporation's task covers car insurance.
