It was the clatter of raindrops on gleaming zinc roofs that punctuated the extended silence in Otuoke on Thursday afternoon.
Before the rains, the Bayelsa community had seemed oblivious of the impending return of one of its illustrious sons – save for the half-hearted renovation works at the Dame Patience Jonathan Square.
The heavy downpour halted, for over an hour, the renovation at the Square, where Goodluck Jonathan, the outgoing president, will be hosted on arrival at his hometown.
On Friday, Mr. Jonathan would begin his journey back home from the seat of power in Abuja.
At the Government House Helipad in Yenagoa, Mr. Jonathan would be received by Seriake Dickson, the Bayelsa State governor, and other top government officials, according to Dan Kikile, the state’s Commissioner for Information.
