Non-notable reality show participant who has played some minor roles in a handful of Nigerian films. Fails WP:NACTOR Shoerack ( talk) 22:08, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Actors and filmmakers, and Nigeria. Shoerack ( talk) 22:08, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
- Keep: The subject has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows ( Big Brother Naija) and music video productions. Passes WP:NACTOR and WP:NBIO with significant coverage in multiple reliable Nigerian sources. –– WikiSpendo( talk) 10:21, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
- Participation in Big Brother Naija does not confer notability. You do need to provide evidence of her significant coverages in multiple independent, reliable sources. Gossips and interviews do not count towards notability. Shoerack ( talk) 13:01, 12 January 2023 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:OUTCOMES, WP:NOTINHERITED, and WP:NACTOR. The clear, longstanding consensus has been that merely participating or appearing in a reality show, advertisement, beauty contest, or Music video does not confer any notability; the practice has been only to retain articles about the winner, place, and show of a major contest. (A person can gain fame by appearing in a notorious TV advertising campaign, e.g., " Rollover mom", but that is extremely rare.) There's exactly zero evidence that he passes as an actor or "influencer." I would not oppose a redirect. Bearian ( talk) 15:24, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete and salt. Fails WP:GNG and does not pass any notability standard that I can find. I removed the "speedy" and chose to comment based on this discussion, but it's pretty clear to me that the subject is not notable. The previous deletion was closed as a "soft delete" based on minimal participation. I think we're headed to the same place but likely with a more firm result.-- Paul McDonald ( talk) 16:13, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. The subject is only known for a single event. She doesn't have a career to speak of at this moment and none of the films she's starred in are notable. Maybe in a few years she would starred in prominent films and garnered media coverage. Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 01:42, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete and SALT both this namespace and Tolani Baj. Doesn't pass WP:GNG or WP:NACTOR. Best, GPL93 ( talk) 02:41, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
