Foreign governments should be more reluctant to take donations/assistance from the US for now. it's a trap!

has Russia given any shishi to Nigeria?

But Russia is a better dignified country than that US. US will squeeze resources and dignity out of you for every penny they give to you. Them and the rest of the west are the masters of slave trade, colonialism and neo-colonialism. Imagine, Trump still wants to annex Greenland and Canada in THIS AGE AND TIME.

Exactly why this will be cancelled once DOGE is aware.

And rightly so.
Why should niheria not be able to preserve her own artifacts without donations?
At a time when Trump is looking at Africa and querying donations, a wise country or organization would avoid for now.....
Or you really think these donations are not trojan horses?

If u go there today, you'll see the descendants of such rich history either foolishly being proud xtians or Muslims, abandoning the rich history of their forefathers.

Bastard fulani Islamic terrorists on the other hand are doing all within their power with their Arab sponsors to exterminate the rich cultures and religion of others. Xtianity will come and be preaching nonsense hell to scare people away from their roots.

I have never seen such sort of madness and black inferiority complex in my life. In far away Brazil, the Yoruba descendants there will be doing Osun festival while the real Osun descendants here will be wearing hijab and practicing arab man culture and be deceiving themselves its a religion.

The height of madness!

FYI, Obas and chiefs who worshipped Osun were the ones who made human sacrifices, kept slaves and sold even Osun worshippers and it's descendants to Brazil and other parts of the world.

Christianity preached against slavery, got the governments all over the world to abolish it. Even came to Nigeria to force our leaders to stop slave trading up to jailing recalcitrant leaders.

So where was Osun when it's worshippers were captured and sold huh

The evil and atrocities that idolatry committed against our forefathers made the sensible ones to quit!

Not true. Below is the geographical area of Nok influence. While slightly different territorial variations exists, no archaeological expert has linked Nok culture to "parts of Edo".

Not just clay. Nok culture inspired the creation of some of the oldest art form to come from Africa dating back circa 1000 BCE I.e 1000 year before the birth of Jesus Christ.

Nigerians should be extremely proud of Nok terracotta work If we are not, in the majority, a people keen to dismiss our own native culture in haste to embrace the culture, ways and religion of others.

Nok work, importantly, conclusively proves the existence of a sophisticated and civilised culture in Nigerian societies long before the arrival of the Europeans.
