Really?
And to imagine that all my life I have never entered there even for once.
That's so sad.

Is that an achievement

There is no space at the oba palace where a world-class museum can sit. The land left therein is fore other traditional and social functions.

Maybe they will bring down some existing structures.

Obaseki tell the oba to leave d artefacts where they are the ones we have couldn't even be maintain ...d benin moat is an embodiment of outstanding artefacts but were is it today we hardly can even trace or recognized it...what about the language is all dead so what's d essence of returning bck d artefacts..... benin artefacts is spread all over d world how many can dey collect and maintain and who wants to cum to a shithole country just for a glance of an artefacts oba nd d government should forget it ...first find a way to resurrect d benin language and d moat and leave d artefacts where dey are it
Has given us more recong globally

I solict d oba and d governor fight for a better cause in the development of benin as a benin i greatly honour the oba but is decisions towards the growth of benim is archade he should learn from other kings of modern era...
Oba kha tokpere ise...

He is supposed to be the main person there.

Modified: OP/Mod, you simply deceived us to read this article by using a different captivating title. Indeed, you're the true emblem of this Buhari-led government.

What state are you?

igbodefender:
Is there enough security for a project like this?

security for what?

mikolo80:
security for what?

Against possible theft. Those Benin artworks are valuable and need the world class security.

The rate at which JSS1 & 2 students are flooding this Nairaland to sprue rubbish is becoming alarming.

Child, note, that museum is Federal not state owned OK! State has no power over that place but, just helping to develop it

Stolen Artefacts: Oba of Benin, Obaseki To Build World-Class Museum To Fast-Track Recovery
www.nairaland.com/attachments/6933036_img20180405wa0015_jpega6de7c3702d7a51c2321bb78da7f30ae
Governor of Edo State, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has said the state government is working with the Benin Monarch, Oba Ewuare II, to build a world-class Royal Museum, to hold stolen artefacts being recovered by the Benin Kingdom.

Obaseki disclosed this when he hosted Prof. Nicholas Thomas of Cambridge University and Prof. Mrs. Annie Coombes of the University of London, both experts in Benin History, to a dinner, at the Government House in Benin City, Edo State.

The governor said the state government plans to work with the monarch to build the museum in the Oba’s Palace in Benin City, and counter the arguments of art collectors, who are still in possession of stolen artefacts from the Benin Kingdom and have maintained that the safety of the artifacts is not guaranteed if they are returned to the ancient Kingdom.

According to Obaseki, "The decision to establish a world-class museum at the Oba's Palace, one of the safest places in the world, will encourage curators across Europe and in other parts of the world, to be confident and support the advocacy for the safe return of stolen artefacts of Benin Kingdom.”

He expressed appreciation to Prof. Nicholas Thomas and Prof. Annie Coombes, for their advocacy for the safe return of artefacts of the Benin Kingdom looted during the 1897 invasion.

He said, “We hope your experience in Benin City will encourage you to sustain the advocacy for the return of our stolen artefacts. When the artefacts are returned, they will assist generations yet unborn to understand who they are, as a people and how they have dominated this environment in the past.”

In his remarks, Prof. Nicholas Thomas, said his experience in Benin City was exciting as the visit gave him the opportunity to see first-hand, the place where the historic stolen artefacts are fashioned in Igun Street.

Prof Thomas said, “True knowledge about artworks is not in University museums but lies in the makers, creators, communities where these works are created.” He noted that the advocacy for the safe return of the stolen artefacts of the Benin Kingdom will be sustained until the artworks are safely returned.
