Seems to be UPE or COI, since the article creator was warned and blocked multiple times. The only point of significance I see for this singer is that he won the award for best Kannywood singer 2013, basically a regional film industry inside nigeria. I must admit the award has a wiki article as well Kannywood Awards Is that enough to establish notability? Daiyusha (talk) 14:13, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete - this is a BLP without WP:Reliable sources. There's also no evidence he's ever toured or gotten a top 10 hit. Bearian (talk) 16:22, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep First, the comment above mine is partly not true. Two of the current sources in the article (Daily Trust and Premium Times ) are national papers and are reliable by any standard. Yes, it's true he has not "toured or gotten a top 10 hit" but then, there's no this concept where he predominantly works (AFAIK). I am no music fan but I couldn't even found Nigeria entry at WP:GOODCHARTS. Now on the article; I believe he passes WP:SINGER criterion 1; he's received non trivial coverage about his work by BBC, Leadership, Daily Trust, Premium Timesand Aminiya just to mention a few. His wedding is of public interest,    likewise his day to day life ,, , . Note: I know the article currently contains some unreliable sources, I ignored them and I believe there are sufficient reliable ones above to replace them. The nominator hinted at likely UPE or COI, I don't believe in the likely of that here. The author was blocked (temporarily) for disruption—more like CIR issue, if you'd like— but anyway, that has no relation to notability of this subject. – Ammarpad (talk) 08:20, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep as per the multiple reliable sources identified above which show that WP:GNG and criteria 1 of WP:NMUSIC are passed (only one criteria needed) so deletion is no longer necessary, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 23:06, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
