Sources available about subject are press releases or articles talking about his organisation Nairametrics. No in-depth discussion about him in independent, reliable sources. Redirect made was undone by the creator which means that the decision was not welcomed. Best, Reading Beans ( talk) 18:43, 11 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Businesspeople and Nigeria. Reading Beans ( talk) 18:43, 11 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    The subject is very prominent in Nigeria and even outside the country. It is the sources I found that I used in the creation of the page. However, I may need to dig deeper in searching for more sources or something like that. But I can assure you of his notability within the African continent on subjects around economics, marketing and the corporate finance. @ Reading Beans Oyindebrah ( talk) 14:46, 15 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    @ Oyindebrah, I am aware that he is prominent in these subjects. He is writing about this subject and talking about this subjects, but, who's writing about him? Best, Reading Beans ( talk) 05:54, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Now if fewer people write about him, does that diminish his notability or noteworthiness? Just curious Oyindebrah ( talk) 16:10, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    @ Oyindebrah, notability? Yes. Noteworthiness? No. It only means he’s not yet notable. Best, Reading Beans ( talk) 20:37, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Delete per the reason given by the nominator. The sources cited mainly focused their discussion on the company he founded and Wikipedia notability is not hereditary or transferable. I would have favoured redirect to the company but holding it back since the creator had reverted the redirect. Noneate ( talk) 10:44, 25 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep or worst, Draftify Although, the article doesn't currently read like an encyclopedic entry. I believe instead of setting the article on fire it could be worked on, there may be more reliable sources available that can be used, and of course, the article needs to be re-written to properly fit Wikipedia's tone.

    @ Vanderwaalforces, are you saying that it is too soon? Best, Reading Beans ( talk) 19:12, 25 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    @ Reading Beans If sources do not exist, it is generally too soon for an article on that topic to be considered.
    That is per policy, but I think sources exist but I haven’t find out. So, pretty much WP:TOOSOON sort. Vanderwaalforces ( talk) 04:37, 26 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I know you think that sources exist, but, where are they? I always withdraw my nomination when independent, non-primary sources with significant coverage are provided. I always do. Best, Reading Beans ( talk) 05:18, 26 August 2023 (UTC) reply
