Delete: Standing in the 2024 Ghanian general election doesn't make him notable, and does not qualify for WP:NPOL. Azarctic (talk) 15:01, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for running as candidates — the notability test at WP:NPOL is holding a notable office, not just running for one — but this is literally just "he is a presidential candidate, the end", and doesn't even try to document any possible reasons why he might already have had preexisting notability for other reasons besides a candidacy.
