This "biography" has negligable independent sources to verify notability, breaches just about every rule in the book when it comes to reliable sources (including using enwiki as a footnote reference!), and does not demonstrate why this subject, or the article in its current state, merits inclusion in Misplaced Pages.

- Strong Keep. The articles referred to by Ankimai appear to be about the article subject and his ministry and his scandals and the government's crusade against him and go into enough depth that he passes WP:GNG handily from those alone. I suspect, though, that most of the reliably sourced third-party notice of him is in print, as the African press is still largely offline.
