Political candidate that doesn't meet WP:NPOL. Of the current references, the first one is purely about his campaign, the second and third are pieces by him, and the fourth is about his company power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 01:05, 16 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete as not being notable in so many ways. Cabayi (talk) 11:23, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
 * delete lacks significant coverage in reliable sources. "Aspiring Representative " is not in sufficient depth- it is an interview with subject. ""This Thing Called Corruption" was written by the subject. "The psychology of financial inclusion" is not about the subject; it is by the subject.  "Learning Impact unveils local electronic newspaper" is routine coverage of the launch of his e-paper and lacks coverage in depth of him or the e-paper. Redirect to an article about the race he is running in would be an acceptable alternative if there were independent coverage, but there is not. This article serves as little more than a soapbox for his campaign.-- Dloh cier ekim   (talk) 12:16, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Do not delete. Article is still under construction. I have seen your arguments and will find more appropriate references. Feel free to contribute to making this article better. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Perehrat (talk • contribs) 22:31, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete, without prejudice against recreation on or after election day if he wins. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections they haven't won yet — but this makes no strong claim of preexisting notability for other reasons that would have gotten him an article independently of the candidacy, and it doesn't show credible evidence of why his candidacy itself would be a special case over and above everybody else's candidacies.
