 Official guess:

Kofi Annan
I guess that hint was a bit too clear then... Correct!
Thank you.

(Not an official question) If not quite a politician, then maybe some sort of diplomat or an ambassador?

 Does Chukwunonso Chukwejekwu pass the obscurity test? He was a Cameroon businessman.

Not an official guess. Asking fellow players.
Forget this.

Yes
So that narrows it down to 24 countries of origin.

Does the currency of his native country employ the word 'franc'?
No.

Two questions left, I will give a hint. Politician is the profession that had me doubting for a minute. I still believe no is the correct answer, but that's the general direction.

 I think we should continue asking about the profession. Maybe we will ask (not an official question yet) whether he was a doctor, a scientist, an engineer or a religious leader? Shall we add anything to this group?
Make this a formal question.

Why do you keep including "religious leader" when that choice has been turned down several times?
When was it turned down? Only a muslim cleric has been excluded. That still leaves Christian figures.

Interesting niche. He's a black man from Northern Africa or a block of the world where we probably don't instinctively associate with black skin. Famous enough that we should know of him but not in a way that was associated with leadership, entertainment/arts, athleticism, or anything that could be translated into wealth.

If they're 'famous enough' and not wealthy in that block of the world that doesn't hit any of those backgrounds has to be either religion i'm thinking it's either somebody associated with religion (as supl13 said), some significant event, or some kind of activist/hero/villain. Tough one.

Just rambling in hopes somebody more knowledgable then me gets a💡, cause i have no clue.
