Keep. This is not a single event. Note the range of dates on the references. Another editor, Kaizenify (talk · contribs · count), posted this as an an edit summary, and I agree: The subject is a prominent transgender in a country with hostility to LGBT and has tried to remain a voice for the community. I would remove the sentence with her former name. We generally avoid using deadnames.Eastmain (talk • contribs) 01:13, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: She is not living in Nigeria. Additionally if she really is that prominent, far more detail and sourcing is required. Past articles are just a paragraph talking about her Instagram posts. Miss Sahhara is different entirely, having been the first publicly open trans-woman, being directly effected by Nigerian laws and having won awards from international modelling competitions. — IVORK _Talk 03:52, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Doesn't seem notable. J0ngM0ng (talk) 02:55, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I don't think she is notable. 117.18.230.34 (talk) 04:52, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above comments, she is not notable. Waddles 🗩 🖉 17:23, 9 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. With sources like Pulse and Dailypost shows some relevance and according to Legit.ng here, their sexuality has encouraged more queer persons which makes them significance in a country against LGBT laws. And hence passes WP:ANYBIO. Dfertileplain (talk) 15:30, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: She doesn't meet the criteria for WP:ANYBIO by any means. ExRat (talk) 22:12, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails GNG. I fail to see how she is notable. She seems to have caused some very minor press tittering in Nigeria and that's it. ExRat (talk) 11:38, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails WP:GNG.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 02:39, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO. Additionally, most of the sources should be disqualified based on WP:NOTTABLOID.4meter4 (talk) 20:59, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
