The editor @ makes a suspicious request that the editor @ should create an article on Broda Shaggi as seen here the editor @ eventually did create the article & he uses  as observed in the article itself “Broda Shaggi”  Now, it gets interesting, this very image was uploaded by an editor named @ who 'coincidentally' joined Wikipedia the same time as  which was exactly 6 months ago. They have same edit pattern & edit similar topic which is on the Nigerian entertainment industry. I would also want it to be duly noted that this is a very tricky scenario as I believe in all honestly that the original sock master is actually, I do have proof of this but it isn’t concrete enough that is why I’m not reporting him directly (but hoping technical evidence will confirm my suspicion by nabbing all three of them) Now my evidence is; I strongly believe that this conversation here & here also are spurious / facade & a deliberate attempt to deceive the unassuming editor. I believe the three people are all one & the same person & that the aforementioned pseudo conversation like I said is just a means to evade scrutiny & throw us off rail & claim plausible deniability. You’d notice that has been warned about UPE here by a different editor. So my guess is he is now operating via multiple accounts so he doesn’t draw attention to himself. Hopefully technical evidence via CheckUser confirms this. If not sockpuppetry then definitely this is meat puppetry. I also want to draw attention to the fact that @ in this conversation with, which says is quite suspicious as they immediately want to make it known that they aren’t Nigerian. The over emphasizing of that point is very much fishy. Something isn’t right here. Celestina007 (talk) 10:08, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * - Not seeing enough for a check here. If a clerk wants to endorse and have another CU look at it or to block for some other reason, feel free, but moving this to the "declined" status. TonyBallioni (talk) 20:21, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I have to agree with Tony - odd interactions, but nothing that proves sockpuppetry. Closing. GeneralNotability (talk) 18:37, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
