Solomon put Jeroboam in charge of the workforce of the northern tribes. He became disgruntled and led a revolt causing him to be exiled in Egypt till Solomon's death.
Reoboam's refusal to lighten the burden that Solomon had put on the people brought back Jeroboam from Egypt, this was fulfilling Ahijah's prophesy.
Jeroboam built in Dan and Bethel shrines to replace the Jerusalem Temple, which caused the wrath of God.
