  • Delete - Biography of a businessman who is a relative of a traditional Nigerian king, the Olu of Warri. The subject does not inherit notability. The article reads like a resume. The article has been reference-bombed, but the references either are about the king, or are passing mentions. (After reading some of the references, I had to reread the article to verify that the subject of the BLP is only a member of the royal family and is not the elected king. The king does appear to be notable, but the king is not the subject of the biography.) The references are mostly either interviews or about the king, or press releases by the royal family.
