Nobody slept on office floors/ furniture overnight 3/4 days a week to help me take the exam, I did. Nobody used all their annual leaves for 4 years to prepare for my exam, I did. Nobody lost most of their weekends and hardly had anytime for socials so I can take the exam. I

Why do some Nigerians love adding unnecessary titles behind their names like PhD, JP, FNIS, FCILRM, ICAN, FIMC, MNSE, FCA, MCIPM, FICA, ACIS, FIoD, FNIM, FCIS, etc? And still, their work doesn’t reflect half their titles. What exactly is the purpose? Meanwhile, the people

Man Proposes, God Disposes! It has been established that a technical glitch affected 157 centres out of the 887 centres in the 2025 UTME. This was basically responsible for the general low performance of the candidates scheduled to sit the examination in those centres.

One of the things that has helped a lot is stepping away and coming back to it with fresh eyes. No matter the pressure, I never ever send an accounting paper immediately I just finished writing it. If I had to send it same day, I leave it for a few hours and come back to it. If

I remember speaking to my Director in KPMG UK about promotion. And Madam went, “oh I didn’t know you wanted to be promoted”! I went silent, mute my mic and was like “se mo wa ka bridge ni London ni”(meaning- did I come to London to count the bridges). She now went on to help
