Nigeria: Accountants' Institute Slashes Fee by 30 Percent By Amina Alhassan, 23 June 2014 The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants has launched an offer of 30% off its registration fee. Also, the capped exemption fee rate of £165 (N43, 560) that applied to South Africa has now been extended to all African graduates across sub-Saharan Africa, the institute said in a statement. The CIMA Country Manager Ijeoma Anadozie said: "We recognise that with weakening currencies our potential students are finding it harder to afford a quality global professional qualification; our mission as an organisation is to help people and businesses succeed and we see this as the way to make CIMA more accessible to a greater number of business and professionals". She said the exemption fees could become a costly exercise especially for those graduates of accounting or finance who qualified for the maximum number adding "A per exemption fee was no longer viable in the long-term. This innovation across our region will really make it possible for a greater number of finance and accounting professionals to pursue our unique and globally recognised Chartered Global Management Accountant (CGMA) designation." http://allafrica.com/stories/201406232169.html Now what about CIMA? |

Properties / House Hunting Tips by Greycells(m): 4:48pm On Mar 09, 2012 |
House hunting tips You have not had it easy getting your dream apartment. May be you need to reconsider your approach to house hunting. Here are tips that will help you find a good deal. 1. Decide where you want to live. [/b]It has to be in tune with your income. Keep in mind access to schools, hospitals, grocery stores and other basic amenities, when deciding on your choice location. [b] 2. Check out the neighbourhood. [/b]You need to know if it is a hazard free environment. Is the neighbourhood crime free or prone to flood? If crime rate is high in the neighbourhood, you need to have a rethink. More so, you do not intend to call an apartment that is waterlogged for the best part of the rainy season your home. [b] 3. Be specific. You need to have a clear cut picture of the apartment type you desire. Is it a single room, two bedroom apartment, or three bedrooms and two baths? Such details make your easier. [b] 4. Get a certified estate agent, not a roadside quack to look out for you. [/b]When looking for an apartment and you find yourself checking out a house advertised by an estate agent, you are talking to the representative of the seller. Get an estate agent to look out for your peculiar need. [b]5. Check out individual owners. [/b]Individual owners cherish reliable, long-term tenants and are less likely to charge exorbitant rent. You can also be sure that your rent would not be raised often. http://oritamefa..com/#!/2012/03/house-hunting-tips.html |

I will advise that you use it for transportation business if and only if u are interested in business, meaning you will keep tab on its running on a daily basis.
