Ugh. This pretends to be a biographical article but is in reality a collection of tabloid tittle-tattle. She won a probably-not-notable competition, which would not confer notability (WP:NOTINHERITED) and that is it. Guy (Help!) 14:42, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep clearly passes WP:GNG. Miss Anambra is a notable competition that has received significant coverage in multiple independent and reliable sources. Stanleytux (talk) 06:08, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete as textbook WP:BLP1E. Beauty-queen-makes-a-sex-tape is hardly an unusual event. Winning a state-level beauty pageant does not confer automatic notability. No substantial biographical depth outside the event. • Gene93k (talk) 15:59, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Article obviously doesn't fall in the one event category. Subject won a notable state level beauty pageant and then was later involved in a sex scandal which received global media coverage. The article should be allowed to remain because it passes Wikipedia's General Notability Guideline. Stanleytux (talk) 07:38, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I agree with Stanleytux that the subject is not notable for only one event. In addition to being known for winning a state pageant, she is known for her leaked sex-tape. This is two events, not one.   Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 15:22, 5 March 2017 (UTC)


 * Comment: We create articles on people on Wikipedia without considering the real life impact of the pages on the lives on people. This article is well written, and does not pass for WP:ATTACK, but nomatter how well we try to write the article, the sex scandal must always be included. I try to put myself in the shoes of this young lady, let us remember that she didn't willingly create and release the sex tape, infact she was possibly blackmailed. She even denied it at first when it was first released. I saw her updates on Instagram during that period and I felt her pain, Ayo Makun described it as a traumatic period for her, she wouldn't want anything that included the sex story to continue, if she had her way she would want this article deleted from Wikipedia. That being said, I think the article is weakly notable (this is not a vote for it to stay), but I do not want it to remain on Wikipedia. Darreg (talk) 18:11, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Even former US President Bill Clinton has a page about his sexual encounter with Lewinsky. Don't go too far Darreg, remember there's a Wikipedia rule called WP:COI. Stanleytux (talk) 19:10, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
 * My comments were based on my empathy as a human being, I follow her on IG, the same way I Megan Fox, Beyonce, Genevieve, Omotola, etc. I haven't met her in real life, neither do I have any connection with her or anything that represent her. Just needed to state that. Darreg (talk) 19:46, 4 March 2017 (UTC)


 * Strong delete sub-national winners of beauty pageants are almost never notable for that. In this case the coverage beyond that is too tabloidish to justify having an article. We lack truly reliable source and indepth coverage of the subject.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:57, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I concur with you on the first point you made, but disagree with you when you said, "we lack truly reliable source of the subject". A few of the sources in the article are reliable, including The Guardian, Vanguard, and YNaija. These sources are reliable due to them having editorial oversight. Just thought I made that clear. I don't want you to think that all of the sources in the article are unreliable.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 15:09, 5 March 2017 (UTC)


 * Weak delete The subject of this article hasn't done anything outside of winning a state level beauty pageant (whose notability has been brought into question). The coverage she received from her leaked sex-tape isn't enough to warrant stand-alone inclusion. If she ventures into modeling or acting, she may be notable for stand-alone inclusion in the future.

 * I don't think she will ever go into any profession that will put her in the public eye. I presume she's trying to stay away from the limelight. Darreg (talk) 10:40, 7 March 2017 (UTC)
 * That is your opinion Darreg. I know it's difficult being blackmailed like that, but she shouldn't allow the sex scandal define her. She has the power to change the perception that people have about her. If she stays true to herself, she will get to where she needs to be.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 21:34, 7 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete for considerations of privacy; no reason to keep an article on someone notable for one event when such page can be harmful. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:03, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
