Report has it that the president of France, Emmanuel Macron has agreed to immediately return 26 African artworks claimed by Benin, Edo state, Nigeria.

It was gathered that the decision on Friday came shortly after Macron received a report detailing how former colonisers can return looted artworks to Africa.

According to AFP, government officials from Ethiopia to Senegal eagerly awaited the report, commissioned by Macron and compiled by French art historian, Benedicte Savoy, and Senegalese economist Felwine Sarr. 

It recommends that the thousands of items in French museums taken without consent during the colonial period be returned to the continent.

Unless it can be proven that the objects were obtained legitimately, they should be returned to Africa permanently, the report's authors say.

French law currently forbids the government from ceding state property, regardless of how it was obtained.

This is really serious. A Nigerian pastor garnered much attention to himself with his "anointed" displays at a recent outreach in the eastern part of the country.

In a video which has gone viral, the pastor (in white shirt) who claimed to be under spiritual influence can be seen running around and charging towards the crowd, only for some of the congregation to fall down.

The pastor used his displays and demonstration to cause a huge scene during the church programme as many fell and rolled on the ground just by pointing and coming close to them.

His ushers who followed him around to pick up those who fell - were not left out in the drama as one even made himself available to be used like a toy by the pastor. .

The video has sparked outrage among Nigerian netizens who feel the pastor went too far with his displays. See reactions below;
