Hi 'Bigben', There wasn't much wrong with the page, except that it was perhaps a bit overly praising the subject. You noticed my edits where I 'wikified' it a bit by removing some salutary text and changed his 'nickname' to his surname, which is standard practice on Wikipedia (WP). The references could use a spruce up with info. such as authors of articles, publication and access dates, and information on the newspapers etc the references came from.--220 of ^Borg 02:34, 30 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This article does not violate any copyrights and its contents are verifiable and referenced.

The article is the profile of a notable Nigerian statesman, and is a vital reference tool for public use.

CSD G11 also states,"If a subject is notable and the content can be replaced with text that complies with neutral point of view, this is preferable to deletion." Those sections of this article that appear to be promotional, please, kindly identify such areas for editing or deletion. It does not achieve any informational or academic value to recommend for speedy deletion, as has been tagged.

The article is currently undergoing edits to eliminate any seemingly promotional material as much as possible.

Please assist.

@Bigbenonline: Can you disclose what the nature of your relationship to the subject is? Are you the subject or are you associated with him in any way? I'm trying to find a solution for this because I realize it might be very stressful for you, but first we need to know if there is a conflict of interest here. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 20:54, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@FreeRangeFrog: No I am not the subject. However I work in the Nigerian power sector, the same industry as the subject. This is my first article and I want to get it right. There is a dearth of online information about notable personalities in my country and wish to contribute by providing as much information as I can reliably source.
