Non-notable company. Fails WP:NCORP. The article basically says that the company was registered, what it used to do and does now, and that it joined its local Chamber of Commerce. There's no substance here. This is just an attempt to use Wikipedia for promotion. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 14:33, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete — promotional article for a non notable organization that lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of them thus does not satisfy WP:ORGCRIT. Celestina007 (talk) 14:45, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Peeling back the layers here, take a look at the link at the bottom of the Businessday reference - the company's website is given as www.theavenue.ng and if you follow that, it redirects to the Instagram page of The Avenue Electronics Ikoyi, which sells gadgets, gemstones and crystals.

Comment — it’s actually funny how I, in the past nominated this article for deletion because of its non notability and shady nature and eventually it had 2 delete !votes + my nom(which is the auto delete !vote) making it 3 delete !votes in total and 1 keep !vote yet it was closed as “No consensus” Celestina007 (talk) 19:07, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Celestina007: Yes, I saw that - the only person arguing for the article to be kept was the creator. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 21:19, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: The present article seems to form part of a set of linked articles with Ade A. Olufeko & Visual Collaborative, featuring WP:PEACOCK prose ("seasoned technologist", "hiatus from the corporate environment", "a Zen-like approach", etc.). The reorientation of the present company to perform a role in new property management software and its membership of a Chamber of Commerce are not inherently notable. A BusinessDay source suggests this is a subsidiary of Visual Collaborative whch might be a redirect target, though it is not mentioned there. AllyD (talk) 10:49, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
