An old video of the late Senator Isiaka Adetunji Adeleke, popularly known as Serubawon, is stirring nostalgia online, with many Nigerians pointing out his striking resemblance to his younger brother, Governor Ademola Adeleke — especially when it comes to their famous dancing steps.
The late senator, who was the first civilian governor of Osun State, was known for his vibrant personality and strong connection with the people. He was also the elder brother of Governor Ademola Adeleke.
In the resurfaced footage, Senator Adeleke can be seen dancing with the same energetic leg movements and signature style that have become synonymous with Governor Adeleke at public events.

The similarity has sparked reactions from social media users, with some joking that the governor may have inherited his dancing talent from his late brother.
Beyond politics, the throwback has offered a nostalgic glimpse into the Adeleke family’s longstanding love for music, dancing and entertainment — a trait Governor Ademola Adeleke has continued to display years later.

Serubawon may be gone, but judging from the dance moves, the Adeleke rhythm clearly lives on.
