Non notable local politician, WP:POLITICIAN. prod removed by IP saying he met WP:POLITICIAN while the guideline clearly started being a local politician or office holder does mean automatic notabilkty as the person's life still has to detailed in multiple reliable sources for extended time. Nothing about this, the only 2 sources used is about electionnews in which everybody winners and losers are mentioned alike –Ammarpad (talk) 16:58, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep: Well, he is the speaker of Kaduna State house of assembly as stated here, that translates to meeting WP:NPOLITICIAN to me. Darreg (talk) 18:28, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
 * And statewide legislators are mostly notable, he isn't even just a legislator but the elected speaker, definitely notable. A Google search produced several routine coverage 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Darreg (talk) 18:36, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
 * First see WP:GOOGLEHITS and be aware, leaders.com, Kaakaki.com and my school.com.ng are all unreliable websites (They are not even news sources initially).  None has editorial board and none has locatable office address. &thinsp;&mdash; Ammarpad (talk) 08:34, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
 * This man, you haven't said anything about my rationale for voting keep. Your reply is empty, you can do better this this. I didn't give those sources to establish notability. I gave them to show there are several routine coverage on him. Everything in those sources are covered by newspaper sites, if that is what you want. You can use Google search if you are not satisfied. These are even more coverage by your so-called "reliable sources" 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, etc. Now tell me how many of these sources are unreliable again? You sound like you just want to prove a point from your reply. Darreg (talk) 09:07, 7 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Keep. WP:NPOL's statement about local officeholders refers to officeholders at the municipal or county levels — mayors, city councillors, school board trustees, county boards, etc. — and not to officeholders in state legislatures, who are covered by NPOL #1. Yes, this needs referencing improvement, but he does fully meet the inclusion criteria and we're not limited to online referencing on web pages — if somebody can find paper referencing from the newspaper or newspapers that cover Kaduna, those will be perfectly acceptable references too.

 * Keep as per above. WP:NPOL is more than met; the article can be improved, but should not be deleted. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 19:41, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep The sources identified above need to be better incorporated into the article. However, all members of state level assemblies such as the ones in Nigeria, past and present are notable. Our coverage in most cases is way below that threshold, but that is what politician notability guidelines say.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:37, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
