2elliot:
He will honor His word. His word is being fulfilled.

and what did God tell you is the reason for all of these ?

2elliot:
See your mouth like global warming. Be there deceiving yourself. Even the white man you so worship their technology and science is beginning to come back to their senses. There is a lot of awaking going on, people are beginning to believe in God and less in the government and the propaganda. From questioning corona virus, to globe earth, to virtually all the lies we have been told.

so 159 of them die... too much !

so tell the oba to go repatriate them himself

ajl:
Sad, they did not teach you history in high school in Nigeria. History has it that in the ancient Benin, the royal palace had multiple bronze arts makers that create those objects as way to keep records of events and incidents that involve the king or palace. They were made for the pleasure of the kings then. So, they belong to the palace, and largely to Benin people. Not Nigeria.

time don change man! these works were designed by ordinary people. it should be in a State museum not Oba private palace, where Oba go keep all the income !

reason man!

ajl:
God help my people to reason. Where the artifacts stolen from by the British? Largely from the palace of the Oba of Benin. So, the items are simply returning home to the rightful owner.

And what constitution are you referring to? That fraudulent document that only the northerners want.

he said the european museums were paying us royalties !
what royalties?
they stole all these art work and place them in their museums, generating income for themselves !

ajl:
See this one! Maintain what artifacts? Like they dropped from Mars. Where they not held at the same Oba of Benin palace for hundreds of years before they were stolen. It's bronze, not some wooden item that will be eaten by termites. If the Benin people did not take care of them before they were stolen, how would they have been stolen in the first place. Are people reasoning at all?

tell us more. what's needed to preserve them. good air ventilation or air-conditioned room. dusting them. we can employ specialists in these area. stop being a colonist and think of doing work yourself !

the oba no get the money. him and him family are all living on government allowance and then they can travel everywhere in the world. the rightful place is a museum constructed and maintained by the state. the oba should be proud to be a trustee.

BluntTheApostle:
Do you know how much it costs to preserve a single artefact?

About 750 dollars per 3-dimensional object every 6 hours. And there are hundreds of those artefacts.

We don't even have preservation materials, which means we would be importing them.

It also costs money to store them. Although not much money; around 30 dollars a year.

Where will the Oba get all that money? From the state government which struggles to make something out of limited allocations, or the FG which is battling inflation and post-recession challenges?

Bring those artefacts to Nigeria, and watch them disintegrate or lose their gloss in a year.

it belongs to the people and that's the government. the oba can also maintain it. the oba is trying to play a fast one.

ajl:
We all know the owner of the artifacts and where it was stolen from. It should be returned to the rightful owner, which is the palace of Oba of Benin. Irresponsible govt trying to play a fast one. Which jurisdiction? The Oba of Benin should head to court. The items doesn't belong to Nigeria that does not value history. It belong to the Benin people, and this is represented by the Oba of Benin.

what royalties ??

these na protocol. benin museum go keep them. edo too need income

BluntTheApostle:
Those artefacts are better off in European museums. At least, we get royalties annually for them.

But in Nigeria, we need well maintained museums to keep these artefacts intact.

Neither the FG, Obaseki nor the Oba of Benin appear prepared for this job.

They just want the artefacts back. No one is talking about the cost of maintaining them or the availability of art lovers who would be willing to see these artefacts.

no be money dem use fund their university be dis ?

go and DIE, idiot !!

na LIE. this is in VI ?
