I'm a bit torn on this one so I'm bringing it to AfD for more editors to weigh in. On the one hand, there's no in-depth coverage of the subject in reliable sources (none cited in the article, and I wasn't able to find anything else online) so they don't meet WP:GNG, and the subject's filmography does not appear to be significant or well-known enough to meet WP:DIRECTOR. Their strongest claim to notability is having won awards at the Best of Nollywood Awards and Abuja International Film Festival. The latter doesn't seem to be particularly notable, but the former festival does appear to get extensive coverage in reliable Nigerian sources like Vanguard. However, "Movie with best social message" doesn't really sound like a top-tier award, and I am thus skeptical that this meets the criteria in WP:ANYBIO of receiving a well-known and significant award or honor. Thus, I am currently leaning toward delete, but would appreciate dissenting opinions per WP:WORLDVIEW signed,Rosguill talk 18:05, 1 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete: I first noted issues of notability in the talk page, while doing page reviewing, and there was no response. This article, in its current form, does not meet the WP:AUTHOR requirements.--1l2l3k (talk) 15:35, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I usually !vote keep for a filmmaker that has directed at least 3 notable films. I tried searching for his films in the regular Nollywood review sites, but the results wasn't so impressive. Yawa:Nemesis, which is a short film and Love is a Prank won/nom some modest awards that should automatically mean there should be some reviews for it on the internet, but I'm not seeing that. I found a review on Stop! from Nollywood Reinvented, which also got an AMVCA nomination. Excess Luggage and Two Sides of a Coin also have some decent reviews on the internet. I don't know, I would have voted keep if not for the peculiarities of this article. HandsomeBoy (talk) 19:46, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
