 * Keep He meets not one but two notability guidelines, WP:POLITICIAN as vice-president of Nigeria and WP:SOLDIER as a flag offficer (admiral) in the Nigerian navy. This is a worldwide encyclopedia, not an American/British encyclopedia.  Cullen 328   Let's discuss it  03:06, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Speedy keep per Cullen328. A national vice-president, who was also a flag officer and ran a major national political party is clearly notable (on any of the three counts).  The article needs to be cleaned up, and it needs a lot more references, but its subject is plainly notable.  --Philosopher Let us reason together. 04:59, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Strong Speedy Keep - this is a totally uncalled-for nomination. This officer is unquestionably notable. Buckshot06 (talk) 01:53, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - A brief google books search shows that the subject has recieved coverage in a range of seemingly reliable sources. As such he seems notable under the WP:GNG. Hopefully some of these can be added to the article. Anotherclown (talk) 11:22, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
