There's no indication that the films, or his roles in them, are notable, & I do not consider that participation in one reality show implies automatic notability; there's nothing else substantial. Iam aware of the previous keep, and I think it mistaken--the sources were assumed to show notability, but they're the customary sort of promotional interviews and other puffery.

 * Keep. The subject passes WP:BASIC and the first criterion of WP:NACTOR. He played a major role in Sugar Rush, a film currently occupying the fourth spot on the list of the highest grossing Nigerian films of all time. He also had a major role in Kunle Afolayan's Mokalik, a notable film that has been critically reviewed by Premium Times, TNS, YNaija, Nollywood Reinvented, The Lagos Review, and Medium. Other reliable coverage of the film can be seen here, here and here.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 13:51, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep — In the very least just like my senior colleague already said I do believe subject of the article does satisfy WP:BASIC. In the previous AFD I !voted a keep so yeah I’m still inclined to uphold that if anything he has really advanced his career even more since then. Celestina007 (talk) 21:33, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep the subject passes WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR. The subject has been notable for his performances in films like Sugar Rush and Mokalik. Abishe (talk) 14:56, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep: I understand where the nominator is coming from, because, in terms of WP:NACTOR, it could be said that the article was created a little prematurely. But, that aside, there is an abundance of coverage on the subject in reliable sources (even if some of the articles appear a little frivolous in nature). There's enough to pass both WP:GNG and NACTOR, in my opinion. Dflaw4 (talk) 05:25, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
