Whenever I see tweets about not allowing people without Accounting degree to write the ICAN exams, I just laugh. Almost always tempted to say my piece, but naa. 😂
The irony is always funny to me because:
1. Professional qualifications are meant to create a pathway into a profession, not reserve it for people who already studied it at university.
2. The exams are already the gatekeeper. If you can’t meet the standard, you simply won’t qualify. Your university degree doesn’t change that.
3. People switch careers all the time. Someone who studied Engineering, Economics, Law or Mathematics can decide years later to pursue accounting and become an excellent accountant. Why should that opportunity be taken away?
4. And let’s be realistic. Professional bodies have operating costs, staff to pay, offices to run, technology to maintain, exams to administer and members to serve. Exam fees and membership dues help fund those activities. Why would they deliberately reduce the number of candidates without any corresponding benefit?
The CFA Program doesn’t require a finance degree. ACCA doesn’t require an accounting degree. Both focus on whether you can meet the required standard. Yet somehow, every now and then, people suggest ICAN should go in the opposite direction.
I honestly just find the conversation amusing. 😂
tried to shoot on the streets of lagos today and egbon adugbo is telling me @burnaboy gave them $18k (25,020,000) sometime in January and @burnaboy i need you to know you’re part of the issues we have in this country cause them no gree collect my fifteen thousand hard earned naira, later you’ll carry you mic and sing about this country.

Journalist: Sir what's your take On the issue of insecurity?
Tinubu: That is the love, obedience of law. Nowhere in the holy teaching that you should engage in banditry, nowhere that you should kill another human being. The sacrifice we're talking about, if in the beginning of life where we take this from. A child was replaced with animal and that is what is value of life is all about.
See who ronu crack heads call intelligent, always talking off point.
