Germany has officially handed over 22 Benin bronze artifacts to Nigeria in Abuja, over a century after they were looted by British colonists. It is expected that this move would lead other countries to return other artifacts stolen from Africa Source: https://www.thecable.ng/photos-germany-returns-22-looted-artefacts-to-nigeria/ampca. 1 Like

Nigeria's wealth is great to an extent that even thieves get satisfied and return part of the stolen wealth. But Nigerians are hungry. What a curse! 1 Like |

Some artefacts might never be returned because people buy stolen art works and they know it was stolen but they will rather buy it and keep it for themselves, that's why very expensive art works are kept with very high security because people will still buy and keep stolen art work... 1 Like |
