A great big nothingburger. Fails WP:BIO, as the sources are not in reliable sources but the kind of fake "newspaper" sites which publish what you pay for (or for free and get money from ads). The "London Daily Post"? An "advertorial" vehicle [1] Just ask yourself the question; why would a Pakistani newspaper write an article about a South African entrepreneur whose greatest achievement is buying a Mercedes A45? What is the purpose of this apart from giving Mothupi a superficially interesting backstory / respectability? Fram ( talk) 14:35, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

- Haha, I don't believe in "nothingburger", if only because such a modern compound should be two words, not one, but as two words it looks terrible so it has to be wrong, but everything else the nominator says I fully believe in: delete. One learns more about how deceptive digital media can be with every AfD-- look at the byline, for instance. Drmies ( talk) 16:33, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
