Article was deleted under G11 today but was swiftly recreated. The obvious COI aside, It's a promotional article for a company that does not meet WP:NCORP. I've done a source analysis on the sources used in the article and also did a BEFORE search which only brought up routine coverage.

*Keep:50% of the sites you mentioned are Nigerian top News Websites with some of the articles written long ago even before this publish. The reason for the addition of NYC was for verification that the Company is Incorporated in the U.S (although it has been and removed)

Sunnews,Vanguard, Leadership, The Nation, Head Topics Nigeria are reputable and notable websites. "The Nation Newspaper", "Vanguard News" and "Leadership" are Independent websites with even Wikipedia linking it as a source. In addition, a citation to a press statement from a reliable source does not violate Wikipedia guidelines. I refer you to the profiles of the likes of Bill Gates, Chimamanda Adichie, Ben Carson etc. For the b2bhint, I have deleted them from the article (thanks for this).

Based on my analysis, you are a Nigerian and well-specialized in vetting Nigerian-related articles, I believe know the company in question and have severally seen rounds of independent publications about it. Let's take for instance. If the Sunnewsoline you mentioned published about the Dangote Group, would you tag it promotional? Why? Because of the level of notability the company has attained.

~~Chinmark Group is registered and licensed under several International bodies like the ISO, CAC, Dubai Chamber of Commerce, The Companies Act, 2015" in Kenya etc.~~

Finally I am not paid to edit or create content on Wikipedia. I am a student of UNIBEN, International Relations and write as a hobby and for development as it relates to my field of career. If I were paid to edit, I would do the right thing and disclose it. I would not attract harassment or a wrong impression when I can do the right thing.
