This item has been moved to mainspace after earlier draftify. Several versions of this item have seemingly been created and the creator has received a final warning in respect of disruptive page moves. The topic could possibly prove notable in the longer term but it is not suitable as it stands for publication. Sourcing is poor and a 'naive' search does not reveal additional SIGCOV. In view of the history a discussion is warranted. Eagleash (talk) 22:40, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

- Delete: Classic case of pov pushing and WP:SYNTH. No exile government existed until 2023, and Simon Ekpa's announcement does not suddenly create an exile government. In addition, "present legitimate provisional government" is especially nonsensical, as Ekpa does not even enjoy majority support among separatist groups. Applodion (talk) 21:55, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. Hardly a "government in exile" as grandiosely claimed; it's basically a self-declared breakaway movement centred around single individual. This page's title and whole raison d'être are blatantly WP:POV. Worth reiterating that the page only got into mainspace because its author wouldn't wait for the AfC process and kept moving the page out of draftspace unilaterally (for which they are now indefinitely blocked). If, for some reason, this shouldn't be WP:TNT'd, it should be redirected to Simon Ekpa at the very least. SuperMarioMan (Talk) 00:10, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
