I've made a reasonable attempt at finding more sources than the current ones, which are insufficient to esablish that the subject is notable: naija.ng is not independent, premiumtimesng.com is a mere mention, mediacareerng.org is a brief mention, and cnn.com is a list item. His book does not appear to have an ISBN number and shows no library holdings in worldcat. Mduvekot (talk) 01:38, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Also worth an admin looking into whether this is similar to the last version that was deleted as paid editing, author might be a sock. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) 01:45, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
- The article is neither sock nor paid editing. The subject is a notable Nigerian journalist and author. I will try to find the ISBN number of the book and provide it in the article. But I'll abide by whatever decision is arrived at by consensus. All suggestions for improving the page for notability are also welcome. Igwatala (talk) 08:59, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

- Weak delete I can't find an ISBN number for the book (at least not one recognised by google books/amazon etc), but there are sources that indicate it probably was published, eg. featured in this article, mentioned in this interview, featured in this article (and pictured), featured in this article, reviewed by this blog (unreliable), for sale here, reviewed, featured etc. I note a number of news articles that seem to be written by the subject, but not ones that are actually about him.
