It is no longer news that the Governor of Bayelsa State, Seriake Dickson, was in Ogun State penultimate weekend to celebrate with the paramount ruler of Ijebuland. The affable state chief executive arrived the venue midway into the proceedings and shared a table with the celebrator and other dignitaries.
While making his speech, he regaled guests with how he is a son of the soil and not a guest as most people thought. While tracing his ancestry, he went further to say his great grandmother, Princess Adebukola Fidipote, was of Ijebu extraction and only married a Bayelsan.
