Fails WP:NACTOR and WP:NSINGER (no significant acting roles; no notable musical works; no awards). No significant coverage in reliable, independent sources – most of what's available online seems to be gossip sites, blogs and social media. Reads like a vanity page.

Delete. The subject fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO; she is an unknown figure in the Nigerian music industry. Versace1608 ^{Wanna Talk?} 01:24, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete: I'm inclined to agree with the nominator (as regards the subject's acting career, anyway), but would be interested to hear people's opinions on the reliability of Vanguard, BellaNaija as sources, since there are a few such articles on the subject—is there a consensus? Dflaw4 (talk) 10:46, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Dflaw4:, Vanguard is reliable, Bella Naija is not. Mahveotm (talk) 13:31, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Dflaw4: Both Vanguard and Bella Naija are reliable sources, however, the link to Bella only shows her music video. It's also worth noting that the page includes a link to Punch which is another reliable independent source ItsBiyi (talk) 12:21, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mahveotm and ItsBiyi, thank you both for your feedback! Dflaw4 (talk) 03:25, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Please note that my vote is based solely on the subject failing WP:NACTOR, and I defer to others on whether she passes WP:NSINGER. (She may pass WP:GNG because she has a fair amount of coverage.) Dflaw4 (talk) 03:33, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. doesn’t satisfy WP:GNG neither does the subject scale WP:MUSICBIO as indicated brilliantly by Versace1608, nor does she satisfy WP:ANYBIO also. Celestina007 (talk) 19:08, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails GNG. Mahveotm (talk) 09:14, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
