How much has the artefacts in Oba of Benin made for the Benin Kingdom so far? Is there any artefacts these Swedish people want to return that sculptors in Benin cannot reproduce?

Why not allow the White man keep those artefacts and agree on a commission the museum they were displayed in Sweden will be remitting to the Benin Kingdom's account?

With that amount, you can sponsor the education of many people in Benin Kingdom, fix infrastructure, sponsor businesses and affect lives. We should be enterprising in this part of the world.

stomach infrastructure warrior. Look like someone is willing to throw away his heritage and pride. And go further to rent a space in a brothel for his wife as long as egunje comes back from the endless shagging.

The ancient Benin Kingdom where the King is truly King

Oba gha tor kpeee ISE

One of our brothers from the south west was saying how can the Binis say the yorubas came from Benin Kingdom, whether I can't see that the south west is larger than Benin Kingdom? So I told him it is not by size and that the Benin Kingdom had a superior civilization than our South West Brothers.

The ancient Benin Kingdom at its peak spread beyond south west Nigeria to other African nations.

Today you still find some places in South West bearing Bini names like Etiosa in Lagos. Even Eko is the name the Binis gave Lagos in those days.

~~The BINIS are Royalty~~

And yet, your oba is a Yoruba Man

The Oba of Benin and the State government is very much aware of this great idea & opportunity. There have been instances where agreements/arrangements have been made to loan out these artefacts to museums in the USA and Germany, and maybe in other countries as well.

Good suggestion.. the only issue is that most museums tend to be free, so the opportunity to make income from it isn't really feasible.

But their custody of the historical objects allows them to apply for grants in the millions.

Obaseki should try it and see what happens. You think the Oba of Benin is like those your Obas in the SW?

Re: Sweden To Return 39 Artefacts To Oba Of Benin's Palace by Topsido(m): 10:59am On May 16

Benin Palace have lost its sovereignty since 1897. Those artifacts should go to Edo State Govt who should transfer it to University of Ibadan with urgent alacrity, for safe keeping. This is a very simple legal case a 100L Law student will settle this in one sitting.
