God is not all knowing. No part of the bible ever said he was. If God was all knowing, then he knows what everyone would be and how they will die and where they will end up. So why even create us? Just start with us as angels.
I even think God is just a personification of the universe and what controls it. Humans in there quest for supremacy decided to depiict it as a human (man) too. Giving it attributes of the everyday humans such as calling him a king, giving him a son (in essence an immediate nulear family) at giving him subjects called angels. Boring. God is what we imagine it to be. The jews have made there own imagination whilst picking inspiration from the greeks.
It is left for us to form our own imagination of that supremem entity. Besides, others who did have been succesful at it ( i mean bhudist, hindus, etc)

I have read all the posts before mine carefully and have the following impression:
Music should uplift the soul. It should also contain coded information about the culture of the composer / performer.
It helps if the practitioners are serious about their craft and not aping the latest american fashion. I think the praises being heaped on the new artists is an insult to the memory of those artists who have created masterpieces that touch people all over the world. i have nothing against the new breed hip hop and soul artists like ruggedman and Tu face but please is one or two albums  enough to decide they are the best nigerian musicians. That is an insult to the geniuses who have done a lot of work over the years. As nigerians we tend to over praise our own. Well what that does is set them up for a big fall. winning kora and all that are actually baseless and have nothing to do with the cultural validity of music. I like what raregroove posted but again maybe we are of a different time. It seems the lack of knowledge and quality education forces us to make mediocre choices.
How many of these so called stars can read a note of music or even competently arrange their sounds.How many have paid their artistic dues. How many are doing music for the right reasons ..?
To get the best nigerian music you have to go back in time to the era of Fela Kuti Bala miller and Haruna Ishola.
Actually Chris Okotie the pastor and ex musician was better than any of the current so called stars in nigeria.

With what uve said, I would say that style plus remains the best naija vocal groupt till date. Then Dare nd Timi dakolo. Styl plus vocal prowess is to me, umatched by any. Their ability to deliver heartfelt flawless performances with pure vocal agility when it comes to their rif-runs. They are just amaszing.

Since no Acca thread.. Let me express my joy here.. All thanks to God I made all 3 papers I wrote. Results out this morning.

Congrats sir. Am an acca student intending to claim exemptions as I have ican. So hopefully intend writing the last 5 papers later this year. What is the maximum one can write at once pls?

ednut1:
Nice to see ican has finally repented as regards scores. Congrats everyone

Seriously, ican became nicer with regards to marking.

konvict0111:
You should pick up some prizes with this, I should like to think.
Congrats, girl! Did you study full time or part time?
What got you this far?

Indeed that is the best result in skills so far. And 84 in FR? Ican really tried. As at november 2014 no one reached 60 in that course. Kudos girl. As for me, march'2016 London induction, here I come!

I've done a research on both and whilst both of them are legally recognised by acts (ANAN was formerly a decree though) both bodies are never exhausted in the supremacy battle.

ICAN was founded before ANAN and both bodies have "literally been sworn enemies". The coming up of any 'rival' body is usually seen as a threat to ICAN's dominance. Well, iRemember ACCA also had similar issues with ICAEW in UK.

A former president of ANAN once said "I don't share the view that they (ICAN) are better than us" while ICAN prayed to a Federal High Court in 2007 to set aside the ANAN decree of 1993.

It's wrong to judge them as 'frustrated graduates' for the peculiarity of becoming an ANAN members requires the candidates to be graduates (ANAN considers ICAN's prerequisites as lax) who must also enroll in the institute's college and proceed for a programme called Accountancy-In-Training.

Before 1993, only ICAN members were legally regared as auditors. Am however a follower of the dogma of "making the best use of what you got". Once students begin or enroll for a professional exam, they begin to question its supposed worth, popularity and the likes. Being a member of a professional body does not "imply (in)directly that superior performance can be expected from such person".

The bodies have different processes and while everyone is entitled to his/her opinion on which they think is better, I don't support limiting access to education. Whichever one finds convenient, let it suit him/her.

For example, I'd rather a sit-at-home UTME candidate or a medical doctor/ graduate engineer who has the interest enroll for ICAN exams while my brother may prefer 'strictly accountants' for ANAN.

Well, I'll say (without any form of prejudice) that it is an undisprovable fact that dia is no comparison between ican and anan interms of syallbus and even exam structure. Being marked by lectuers whom u are likely to know at a personal level does not seem objective to me. Also not going to mention names, but I know 2 past anan past presidents who not only failed to qualify as aca's but still have dia names in ican student list. I also have compared both past questions at the professional level and I can say dat dia is no basis for comparion. I would rate de anan exams at best equivalent to AATWA, no offense. If anan wants to be more regarded, it should swallow de idea dat accounting practise is not limited to bsc.accounting. Afterall the famous frank wood read economics nd simply chaterd!ps
