A Twitter user, @OlamideKuti has revealed the burial place of one of King Solomon's concubines to be situated in Western Nigeria.
Taking to the microblogging platform today, Kuti said the concubine known as Bikikisi Sungbo (Queen Sheba) was buried in Ijebu Ode in Ogun State.

Odumosu made the story believable by sharing pictures and white tourists who went on the mission to discover the corpse.

Another Millions missing in that aspect.
He boasted that his Dad tried to preserve the site as a tourist attraction which did not fall through as planned.
"Imagine how much Lagos state will be making if Sugbon was preserved and promoted all over the world. Imagine jobs that will be created, world-class hotels and resorts built in Epe. Tourists come in a bid to do the stretch of walk through the 100 Miles ditch with a map they buy," Odumosu concluded.

Nigerians responded in awe of the place.
Also she was very beautiful and wealthy but journeyed faraway to be a concubine, I don’t know how King Solomon managed to pull that off...
