I thought to myself that if I could successfully complete four Papers in one examinations sitting, I could certainly do five. Impressed with my progress thus far, I became more ambitious. In November 2017, I sat for the remaining four papers at level II: Financial Reporting Paper 8, Financial Management Paper 10, Management Decision & Control Paper 11 and Auditing & Professional Ethics & Values Paper 12. In August 2017, I proceeded to level II and sat for one Paper, Advanced Taxation Paper 9. In June 2017, I sat for two Papers, Financial Accounting Paper 1 and Quantitative Techniques Paper 2, having been exempted from the other 5 at level one of the course.

However, when I was invited for the interview, I did not impress the panel because I lacked the requisite qualifications. I applied and I was shortlisted, based on my experience. In 2015, the Ministry of Local Government advertised for the position of Accountant for a project that was funded by the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD).
