Not much coming up on Google Scholar - a WP:BEFORE check shows he is "vice-chancellor" of a IBBUL or IBB University in Nigeria - not sure if editors will consider this "an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon" Seraphim System ( talk) 08:00, 21 April 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Keep There might not be alot coming up on google scholar but it is considered a big deal in Nigeria to be named Vice Chancellor and they're quite a number of sources though not much on GNEWS. Plus the University is notable. Mredidiongekong ( talk) 09:46, 24 April 2018 (UTC) reply
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • keep, obviously notable. Passes criterion 3 of NPROF. Mahveotm ( talk) 05:06, 1 May 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep passes WP:PROF#C6 too. Vice Chancellor is greater position than "named professorial chair" which must be under vice Chancellor's office. As said in this AfD: "Vice chancellor" is the chief executive and academic officer of University in Nigeria (and most Commonwealth states) while "Chancellor", " Pro-Chancellor" or "President" is ceremonial/titular/non-remunerated role given to traditional rulers/or retired expert. In addition, generally all vice chancellors (of public versites, at least) are seasoned professors (I mean Full professor in U.S sense) with long records. – Ammarpad ( talk) 07:12, 1 May 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. The nominator quotes WP:PROF#C5, but that is irrelevant because the subject clearly passes WP:PROF#C6, as stated in the nomination statement itself. 86.17.222.157 ( talk) 16:34, 1 May 2018 (UTC) reply
I can't find any reliable sourcing supporting the assertion that this university is a "significant accredited college or university" and it's not on this list of public universities in Nigera [1] Seraphim System ( talk) 19:43, 1 May 2018 (UTC) reply
That just lists the federal universities. Try looking at the list of state universities at the same site. 86.17.222.157 ( talk) 19:53, 1 May 2018 (UTC) reply
