Delete: fails WP:NPOLITICIAN. Unelected officers in a state needs to pass the general notability criteria, this is not even a commissioner, but an assistant to the governor which is always not uniform across states. HandsomeBoy (talk) 06:18, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate the concerns raised about the article, I want to request that the article be moved to the draftspace so that it can be improved before publishing. Preciousayara (talk) 06:14, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi preciousayara, I don't want you to get discouraged by this nomination because I think you're doing a great job, especially on Niger Delta articles. Just a little more explanation, according to WP:POLITICIAN government appointees at federal and state level are mostly considered notable. This includes federal and state chief justice and other main statewide and federal offices. If this was a commissioner, I might have voted keep, even with minimal coverage. Unlike commissioners, governors are at liberty to create and uncreate special advisers and assistants without getting consent from the legislature. Another issue is the replication and clash of power, for example the special adviser to the governor on sports is still answerable to the sport commission, which is supervised by the commissioner for sports. At federal level, all special advisers usaully pass GNG, so there is usually no need for WP:NPOLITICIAN. Again her office is not one that will stand the test of time if another government comes on board, besides if we set the precedence of allowing assistants/advisers to state governors based on SNG, not GNG, Wikipedia will be filled with so many under referenced and unnotable individuals. The above is my interpretation, so i can understand others disagree. What you can do now is to look for more significant coverage on her or her impact as SSA, then maybe she may pass GNG, but presently am not seeing that.HandsomeBoy (talk) 13:12, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
