There is no significant coverage in reliable sources. The first source was published by a contributor on a site that doesn't appear reliable. The second and third sources are practically identical, providing nothing about the subject beyond a name drop. This fails to meet the criteria of WP:GNG and WP:NBIO imo.

The sources used are to establish the subject as a spiritual leader of Hare Krsna Movement in Ghana. Most of the stub centers around this. As the author of this stub, I do not have access to any information on anything else other than this. It may be a little short for a biography, but the beauty of Wikipedia is that another contributor may carry on the work that has been started. Heatrave ( talk) 17:13, 18 May 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Heatrave: Articles are not kept based on one's religious background; you need to explain how they meet the general notability guidelines or WP:BIO. GSS💬 03:58, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
.Keep as he's a the lead priest of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness in Ghana, which is one of the 69 affiliated ISKCON centers in Africa. [1]. I believe that this is unusual to deserve attention in the context of Ghana which has a growing Hindu population. [2] Heatrave ( talk) 08:07, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
Notability is not inherited. Just because he is the lead priest of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness in Ghana doesn't grant him automatic notability. You need to provide sources that establish significance according to the policies. GSS💬 10:58, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
