Delete you need sources to establish notability. Even with sources getting a statue erected is generally not enough to pass notability standards. Best,

Delete. People are not automatically notable enough for Wikipedia articles just because they lobbied for the creation of a statue. Literally nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to guarantee him a Wikipedia article just because he exists, but the referencing is a mix of unreliable sources (Blogspot, etc.) and glancing namechecks of his existence in news articles that aren't about him, so none of the sources get him over
WP:GNG either. If "no one published this story", that in and of itself is precisely why it is not our job to publish this story either: our job is not to help you create the web presence of a person who didn't get any media coverage, it's to keep articles about people who got media coverage and not keep articles about people who didn't.
