slivertongue:ARE YOU AWARE THE BENIN DYNASTY IS SENIOR TO NIGERIA LET ALONE THE GOVERNOR? 4 years or 8 years the governor will become an ordinary man,but the king will remain till death. The governor should use his head,becos he great grand parents was one of the reason those things was looted. The obaseki family is known for betrayal. He should thread carefully. 1 Like |

Coldie:. You obviously don't know anything about the traditional institutions laws of Edo State. Let's even take it hypothetically that Edo State government has the power to dethrone the Oba of Benin, who in the whole of Edo State do you think will accept being appointed to replace an Oba who is still alive, and who among the Oba's own direct lineage will accept to step into the office? Not even the Edaiken of Uselu (the crown prince) will accept such offer. Google Anthony Onyearegbulem and find out why no traditional ruler in the whole Edo State accepted to replace the Oba of Benin on Onyearegbulem's purported sack of Erediauwa as head of Edo State Traditional Council. Una go just come online dey put mouth for wetin una no really know shishi about. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Afam4eva: When the artifacts were made, there was nothing like Edo government. Obaseki and FG are only after the artifacts because they want to resell them to another country and loot the money. I think China is already on the waiting list of the countries that want to buy them 3 Likes |

frog12: Wow!!! The oba no get money? I laugh at your ignorance. Do you know the number of multi million if not billon businesses the oba and his family operates. Ignoring that, if the oba today ask for even a 100billion fund to build a museum in less than a day he would have twice that amount. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Bundaweber: ajl: frog12: Our forefathers had already achieved a lot in technology before the colonialists came. We were already performing surgery; we had developed our own anaesthesia. It was when the foreigners came that they banned African technology and forced their own technology down our throats. So, don't even compare yourselves to our forefathers. No one knew what technology they used to maintain those bronzes. Even it still baffles the British who used to suspect that it was the Portuguese who guided them. But it was not the Portuguese. Africa was already advancing in technology. Our type of technology. After colonialism, the Europeans instituted imperalism. And that is what makes us to continue to depend on their own type of technology. frog12: Read about the cost of artefact conservation. It is different from mere preservation.
