Tangerine Life has taken vital steps to provide support to the State Government and Health Care workers in the fight to eliminate the spread of the COVID-19 Virus.

The digital financial services company has joined forces with five insurance companies and the Lagos State Government to contribute towards a N5 billion insurance scheme to support Lagos State Health Care workers and volunteers.

Below is a full list of the companies involved in this effort:
