I don't know what Obaseki want to do with traditional ancient artefacts. If they're kept with the government, another government will take over someday and might not value those things infact many might be stolen. Those artefacts are more esteemed to traditionalists, than the government. Oba of Benin is the rightful person who deserve to take custody of those things and house them in the palace. It is not right for the federal government to hold on to those things. Baba might take a loan and use those things as collateral. Give it to Oba for the culture 378 Likes 17 Shares |

The artifacts should be returned to the Benin Royal palace. If not, FG should have them. On no condition should they be given to the state government. 124 Likes 5 Shares |

I really don't understand why people are sentimental and bias about this issue. It makes more sense for the Edo state Government to keep it since where the bronzes were taken are now under their jurisdiction. The reason it should not be handed over to the Oba of Benin is because the traditional system has no recognized role under the constitution and there are no checks and balances to check the excesses of the traditional body. For instance, what stops the present Oba from keeping those bronzes as his personal property if handed over to him. 33 Likes 2 Shares |

lol, they played Obaseki Oba asked FG to do this. Obaseki should not allow this kinda things make mess of him. He should be careful. The Anenih’s, Omorogbe’s and other royal houses are not friends to the Obaseki’s so he should watch his back 4 Likes |

The real and original owners are Igbo People. The ancestors that made these bronze artifacts were the same people that made the ones in Egypt. And these ancestors were Igbo. Return it back to the original owners. The Igbo People 10 Likes |

The federal government is mad! When those artifacts were stolen, Nigeria was not in existence, therefore the federal government should stay out this! The federal government should concentrate on repatriation of stolen funds from government coffers and borrowing money from China and stay out this matter because these artifacts are elder brothers to Nigeria as an entity.

This simply means both the palace and the State govt will make individual proposals to the FG and the FG will decide what to do to the artifacts. The State government has a better plan for the artifacts with the Edo Museum for West African Arts. I bet even some other States, especially the Lagos museum, will benefit and have a share from the almost 2,000 pieces. 5 Likes |
