This article appears well sourced but almost all the sources are press releases which are not independent coverage of the subject. Northern Escapee (talk) 07:09, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Strong Keep I can see more than four secondary reliable sources which pass Wikipedia notability guidelines.Kojomo (talk) 08:37, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
1. If multiple reliable publications have discussed a topic, or better still debated a topic, then that improves the topic's probability of being covered in Wikipedia. First, multiple sources that have debated a subject will reliably demonstrate that the subject is worthy of notice. Second, and equally important, these reliable sources will allow editors to verify certain facts about the subject that make it significant, and write an encyclopedic article that meets our policies and guidelines.
2. Every article on Wikipedia must be based upon verifiable statements from multiple third-party reliable sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. A third-party source is one that is entirely independent of the subject being covered, e.g., a newspaper reporter covering a story that they are not involved in except in their capacity as a reporter.
This article satisfies both scenarios explained. I propose a Strong Keep AGwrites (talk) 09:47, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep - meets WP:GNG with The Guardian (Nigeria) Apr 21, 2019 and Vanguard (Nigeria) Jul 11, 2020 (reporting on a commendation from the High Commissioner of Trinidad and Tobago), both of which have bylines are published by reputable national media outlets. Both The Guardian [1] and Vanguard [2] [3] have published other stories about Ogelle. Additionally, we have The Nation (Nigeria) Apr 21, 2019 and Peace FM (Ghana) May 27, 2019, which are not bylined but appear to be reliable sources nonetheless. I'm not familiar with the reliability of Techpoint.africa [4], but it's bylined also. There is multinational significant coverage by reliable national media outlets.
