Keep He appears to meet WP:NPOL by being a President of Mauritius as noted and demonstrated in the article. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 15:44, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Meets WP:NPOL - he's the current President of Mauritius and has previously held two Ministerial offices in the country's government. Neiltonks (talk) 16:02, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The article obviously needs some improvement, but the president of an independent country is inherently notable even if the article isn't FA-quality yet. Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not necessarily the quality of the article in its current state — which means that if good sources exist to improve the article with, which they certainly do here if you do a simple Google News search, then we keep the article and allow it to improve rather than deleting it just for not already being in better condition than it is.
