BLP of a non notable businessman. Much of the coverage relates to a court case although this isn’t an attack page. Plenty of promotional coverage and not much else. Mccapra (talk) 19:59, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

• Keep Thanks all for your inputs, I quite don't agree on the part of the subject not being notable, media publications in various countries have their peculiarities, the subject is quite notable in his country Nigeria, I just added more reference sources to more recent publications made concerning the subject being recognized by three National youth organizations for his business achievements and youth development. These publications were made before the request for deletion. The subject's Music label has a verified page on Instagram and you and I know it's more easier to get a Misplaced Pages page than to be verified on Instagram. The article has nothing promotional other than just cited mentions of necessary contents that should make up a normal Misplaced Pages page. If there are areas anyone feel needs to be corrected, it can be pointed out for corrections rather than suggesting deletion. Thank you. Delords () 23:09, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
• Keep for reasons mentioned just above! Balle010 (talk) 01:21, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
• Delete per WP:SIGCOV. Other than an alleged criminal case, there is nothing to report. He appears to be a very ordinary business person and musician/producer. Lots of people are locally famous, but don't meet our standards for notability. Bearian (talk) 16:00, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
• Comment I still support my keep request. More readings into some of the cited news sources tells he is not just an ordinary business person, he owns a group of different companies which are all doing well and runs an NGO. His music label was launched in 2004 and had some popular artists then under it's label and this was in a period when several news media in Nigeria only had a major focus on print media and not online, which is why you won't find much of that online. Out of current 29 references, about 22 of them were on other activity reports other than the said court case which has only 7 sources and I wonder why it became a basis for the deletion. There are other reliable reference sources that were not cited in the article. What works in other region must not always be the case in other regions. There are thousands of articles which won't level up to this, but were allowed on Misplaced Pages which makes me feel if there are any bias as to why this shouldn't be allowed. I am Nigerian and know more about what happens in Nigeria. Thank you. Delords () 18:44, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

@Mccapra: Oh, it's been corrected. Thank you for pointing that out. Delords (talk) 20:26, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
