enough to keep on that basis alone and they aren't the type that would actually extend notability towards Adekunle even slightly. Getting an award from the publisher that you are paying to publish your book isn't really the type of thing that gives notability. Nor would be any awards from USA Books. As far as the other accomplishments go, receiving local awards doesn't really mean much if they're not notable by Knowledge's standards and I notice that the only place that mentions the "O.T.

Even if it isn't, this one article wouldn't come close to showing notability for her. There are a few press releases for her floating around, but there's nothing to back up any of the claims in the article and even if there was, none of those claims give notability. None of the awards are notable

I found one mention of her in an article, but it looks to be a brief mention as far as I can tell. 160: 119: 299: 126: 92: 87: 96: 79: 181: 148: 17: 198: 142: 311: 290: 257: 230: 61: 329: 226: 40: 138: 83: 188: 218: 75: 67: 325: 253: 36: 222: 174: 154: 307: 29:
