Adewale Fayemi

Does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NBIO. Coverage appears limited to press releases. Article is basically a resume. ubiquity (talk) 19:41, 18 March 2016 (UTC)

Total S.A., the parent company of Total E&P Uganda has posted three general managers to the country in the last four years. The last guy before Adewale Fayemi lasted a few months. Part of the problem is that the first two appointees were not consensus builders and the Ugandan government viewed them as arrogant and impatient. Fayemi on the other hand listened to the government and within 60 days of his appointment, went down to Tanzania with the number two individual in the Ugandan Oil and Energy Ministry and participated in convincing the Ugandans and Tanzanians to build the crude oil pipeline from Hoima to Tanga, which Total S.A. wanted all along. That ability to build consensus is what makes him notable in my book. He then turned around and convinced Total S.A. to commit US$4 billion towards the construction of the pipeline. He is getting results, in 6 months where two of his predecessors failed in 3 years. I think that is notable.

 * Delete as all of this seems questionable for the applicable independent notability, nothing here suggest considerably better improvements. Asking for analysis.  SwisterTwister   talk  04:53, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete: Sadly no evidence of notability. Yes, his appointment as the General Manager, Total E & P (Uganda) generated a lots of media coverages but that is not significant enough to establish Mr. Adeyemi's notability. The sources provided and the ones I found do not address him in detail. Hence, he fails WP:GNG and WP:BIO. General managers are not automatically notable.
