Social media provides a platform for everyone to say what they know on topics of interest. But not all who have something to say have the experience and the authority to do so. There is a lot of noise out there on social media. This is why we have curated five X accounts you can add to your Twitter list to get more information about the ICAN examination.
Akin Obilana
Akin Obilana comes first on the list because he is in the business of training professionals pursuing the ICAN’s ACA status. He uses his X account to explain concepts mostly in IFRS and audit. Mr Akin posts the number of days remaining to the exam date regularly. This can help boost your reading morale. You can follow him here.
Sobur Lekan
With the X account Leksyde and Spotify podcast, Sobur Lekan has provided a platform for professionals preparing for the ICAN exam to learn IFRS practically. Other finance professionals can also learn from the platform. His podcast is done on the X platform and the recordings are posted to Spotify.
Idris Ayinde
Probably, the guru of IFRS and technical accounting. From his X handle, Mr Idris provides a learning ground for accountants to share their knowledge of IFRS standards. He normally runs a poll on X from time to time on IFRS topics. The pool is practical. Learning from the podcast gives individuals with little knowledge of IFRS the confidence to apply it in work and exam environments.
Quddus Iwelabi
From his X account, you can learn a series of accounting topics. Mr Iwelabi shares advice on how to face ICAN challenges. If you ever have the feeling of discontinuing ICAN or the accounting profession, this page is the right place to be.
Nojeem Nuge Yusuf
Probably not his complete official name, but when it comes to taxation, he is the go-to guy. He posts on current knowledge on taxation in Nigeria. Therefore, you should consider following Mr Nojeem's account before ICAN begins the implementation of the new tax act from the May 2026 exam diet. He also talked about his experience in writing the ICAN exams.
To avoid confusion, reduce the noise on social media. It is important to choose who you follow closely. Or you can rely on the above X accounts for good advice on your ICAN journey.
