AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Was at AfD before as a bundled request but it was suggested that an individual AfD would be better. My original concern is still valid - Fails WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:GNG. Has not played in a Fully professional league or received significant media coverage other than routine mentions. JMHamo (talk) 21:19, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment - the article claims he played in the Nigeria Premier League, which is a WP:FPL, we need to see if we can verify that either way. GiantSnowman 09:25, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Mark Arsten (talk) 02:43, 10 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep - The wiki page for his former team Udoji United F.C. notes that he is a famous former player, and I believe he was with them when they were in the Premier League. This newspaper article  confirms his past (and pre-dates his Wiki page by 3 years). Nfitz (talk) 03:07, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
 * You can't use a Wikipedia article as a reliable source. There is still no evidence that he actually made a first-team appearance in the Nigerian Premier League and playing for Nigeria U20 is not notable. JMHamo (talk) 23:27, 11 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete - I cannot find any reliable sources that show he played in the Nigerian Premier League, so he appears to fail WP:NFOOTBALL. He also fails WP:GNG. GiantSnowman 14:56, 15 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - per nom. He has not played in a fully pro league (or at least is not confirmed to have done so by reliable source), nor has he received significant coverage, meaning the article fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 20:28, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - I also cannot find any reliable sources that show he played in the Nigerian Premier League, so he appears to fail WP:NFOOTBALL. No indication of any wider coverage for other achievements to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 16:17, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
