The Minister, Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki; and some Government officials had visited Germany recently to further talks on the repatriation of the artefacts allegedly looted during the invasion of the Benin Kingdom in 1897 by the British led by Captain Philip.Briefing This new development comes amidst a disagreement between the Benin palace and the Edo government over who will house the historical artefacts. The Oba of Benin asked the federal government to take possession of the artefacts until the Benin royal museum is built to house them. Chief CHARLES EDOSOWAN, SAN ADDRESSES THIS.

The artefacts belongs to Benin Kingdom and it should be returned to the Kingdom.
YES!
I love, love, love this monumental conversation with the SAN, an Edo lawyer, it couldn't be better than coming from one of the most knowledgeable and concerned!
I love my OBA of Benin whith all my life yes..bendel light we move
Go for Bini Republic.
Don't love “one nigeria” more than common sense.
It belongs to the Benin kingdom not the federal government..
Which federal government,say Fulani Hausa uncircumcised government!!!!
FACTS 💯💯
I'm proud to be an Edo man
Oba gha tor kpeee iseeeee
Iseeeeee
@@faithfully921 Na man you be baba
Proudly Bini
Iseeeeee
Am from the Great Benin Kingdom, live in Germany. Those items should be returned through the feds to OBA OF BENIN.
We are having a peaceful protest in Stuttgart on 24 - 07-2021.
Please no one should protest now because, the German government will then have a right not to return it. Please let wait or consult the Palace first.
@@edotv6836 how will protest make German to have the right not to return them?
Go for Bini Republic.
After all there was no Nigeria when these artefacts were taken away.
@@edotv6836 You are absolutely correct. No need for protest. Protest what problem asserted by whom? why?
@@touchnot7334 the German agreed on one thing that there should be no dispute over the ownership. If the owner wishes is not respected it can be opportunities for them to come up with another protocol.
I think they should consult the Palace if this is the rightful time for protest.
A true breed intelligent and refined...Domo sir.
The entire Benin/Edo needs to watch this segment. I am very sure it will refocus the views and ameliorate the fear and concerns! Yes, I understand now that it is not the intention of the Federal Government of Nigeria to take possession of our artifacts! Hear from a reputable chief and Senior Advocate of Nigeria!
Why not go for bini republic? Ur oba is maintained and sustained by the state so how can he ask that those artefacts be given back to him?
@@juninhofreekick4912 Eeeeeen, Mr free kick, jealousy will kill you, I am here giving you your free kick. You see, you have no other reason here other than to try disparaging Benin. We know you fools, either you are an IPOB or someone devoid of culture. Go ahead with your inferiority complex, yes, go ahead!
LONG LIVE MY GREAT OBA OF BENIN KINGDOM OSA VBE ENIKARO GUWARO ISEE ISEE ISEE ISEE
Iseeeeee
Our Oba said “ before the artifacts place will read the FGN will take possession of it” just for a time be, why are we making issues out this?
Our Oba has spoken so shall it be.
Our oba has spoken. Is like u are living in dark. U have to read d handwriting on d wall.
@@DONERICTV5199 how can she read the hand writing on the wall when she can’t even articulately express herself?
@@DONERICTV5199 Ok ooo Mr rabble rouser!
I do not have iota of doubt that president Buhari and his administration will return the Bini artifacts to its appropriate place and to the OBA of Benin, who is the rightful owner and the custodian of the cultural heritage of the Bini kingdom. Because I sincerely believed that president Buhari valued the Nigeria cultural heritage, and the Bini culture included hence his administration has vested interest in the Bini artifacts.
Therefore, I commend president Buhari for his efforts so far, and he should do the needful of returning the artifacts to the OBA of Benin upon their arrival to Nigeria.
And to allocate money for the preservation process of the artifacts based on the OBA’s preference instead of through private entities, as envisioned by the Edo governor.
Also, the governor should not be treated as pariah in my opinion, he should immediately apologize to the OBA of Benin kingdom. Because he can not forcefully take the OBA’s property and convert it to private/government holdings. And as a bini man himself he should have envisaged the implications of his actions. For this, he should apologize without further delay.
However, I commend the Benin Chief and appreciate his inputs on the matter and also the presenters of this program for their excellent lines of interview.
I totally agree with you hmm
Return the artifacts to the Benin mornach it belongs to the Benin.
Yes o 👍
Benin empire goes back to centuries..... very emotional....
The artifacts could be rented to museums around the world yearly or whatever contract is agreed upon. The profits will go directly to the OBA of Benin. The OBA can use the profit to build first class museum. Build a replica of ancient benin city. People from around the world can come to Benin, creating some kind of revenue for the Benin state.
Nice idea
But u should know if they remake any thing that’s already in Europe it’s not going to be regarded as an original but the white will still call it a proto type
You have said it all sir long live the king
Iseeeeee
It should be returned to the palace because that was where it was stolen from. Buhari government should fitz the country the artifact is not the problem of the country. Buhari government must una loot everything? This will be the end of lia Mohamed if anything should happen to those artifact.
The Benin Kingdom that's far older than Nigeria is now a subject to Nigeria. NOW, a Senior advocate of Nigeria is agreeing to this nonsense.
Belongs of Idu Igodomigodo Land **
Idu and igodomigodo are still the same people... Benin people 💪🏾
Edo people be very careful about this returning artefacts because fulanis government will careless take over the artefacts
You are correct, we are at that second level or stage on that awareness now. We are Benin, not fools! Thanks so much for the information, God bless you.
If fulanis government try to mess with the returning artefacts, Edo people will set the Country on fire 🔥💥 i trust my people 👌👌
Fulani are far better than useless obaseki 👌🏾
Ogun Oba will take over the fulanis by fire 🔥
Edo have lots of artifact in Liverpool England why are they not returning them too,is just close to the Liverpool River making millions for UK I for one has seen it i was very angry that day I had to walk out on my woman because she is British later I did apologise because she got nothing to do with it,I had to pay for my own treasure thats piss me off
My brother on that your emotions where in the right place , that is how a true Benin Child will react.
Go for “Bini Republic” and then ask for them as a state. You cannot love “one nigeria” and want those artefacts back. Na una carry “one nigeria” for head.
@@juninhofreekick4912 bro is edo am talking about not Nigeria before Nigeria there was edo abi
@@osasosasco2615 Go for Bini or do Republic. You will still be bigger than Gambia, Eswatini or even Sierra Leone. In the entire south, na edo carry “one Nigeria” for head pass, even after how the Brits destroyed your kingdom&rendered it desolate. Una still love Fulani and attack anyone that tries to split Nigeria. That is why no one takes you guys serious.
@@juninhofreekick4912 ok heard u,but what u need to know is no one is enjoying Nigeria now except you are connected to the top,social media can be deceiving bro the street think otherwise my people are not enjoying Nigeria
Whoever takes possession of the artefacts will I suspect make duplicates and secretly sell the originals to collectors back abroad. This is the type of corrupt country and culture Nigeria has.
Hmm 🤔
We don't want federal government, they should returned it's to Benin kingdom period
Yes 👍
When ibori lut where return it was returned to delta why this status not return to Benin...they belong to the palace where they were taken.
Yes, but it was Federal government that negotiated the return before it got to Delta state based on international treaty.
Enos you have to know about the the negotiations of this items..and never forget that the present Oba was an ambassador b4 which he has been making some move ..and at the same time I mean .under the law is federal govt that has the right to negotiate this items on behalf of any person or association.
Then dont forget this items signify the history and spiritual theory of that land they where taken from ..and I tell you does accesestors are still waiting for the return of those items no matter how long it took to bring them .europ.amarica and England rub us of our identity our history and so on and so fault
For ibori he took the money from the present of federal Gov't to the uk even his own state denied the he was an inoccent..
Any way my regards to you and your family thanks
Delta state through it's state SAN denied monies was stolen by Ibori on a legal document so how do you return the looted monies to a state who declared monies was not stolen😠
Obaseki is a fool.
Charles Edosomwan (SAN), Ize Iyamu lawyer doing what he knows best, politicizing issues out of proportion, this same SAN talked down the national conference during JEG government, he knows so much how to throw spanner into a progressives' wheel and yet claim he is a progressive (APC) lawyer
You are not making sense
During Benin Empire,in 17th,not in Nigeria Country.Must,be,under oba place.stand for,your right,is your culture,belive,not fulani killing them pagans items.
With all due respect, there's nothing honourable about the minister. The Edo people are the only people that hold their tradition to heart
This senior advocate of Nigeria spoke with a lot of wisdom
Waoooooo, this is a highly celerebral, educative, indept historical and objective exposition on the subject of discussion.
Which of the Oba was taking to Calabar? The Artifacts belongs to the Benin Kingdom palace.
Oba Ovoramwen
Obaseki think say him smart Our Oba smart pass him
Mumu mee ewu
You see when we were complaining about Obaseki been greedy , people think were lying, His grand father betray the oba and the son wants to do same
@@ChrisBTommy The Obas being what they are, and doesn't like anyone to prosper except themselves, so that everybody will be their slave. The Oba are has been envious and hateful of Obaseki but do not worry God almighty will expose him and you all in Jesus name.
@@patiencepat4256 Oba of benin , I think you are drunk
Obaseki is an evil man, he only thinks with his big ass oops 🤣
Nigeria federal government is a transfer between Benin people in this artifact evil British force invaded problem but today Benin has been put under a fulanis military lslamic back ward corrupt criminal organization postitution element of so call ñigeria may God almighty containue to bless Edo kingdom amen
If the FG try to keep them we the Benin's will take Nigeria to court.
Oba gha to kpere.... ise

Isee
Iseeeeee
Long live OBA of great people of Benin
Why would federal government want it ??? Hence there is a museum in Benin city, it should be returned there.. . Restructure this country... Must federal government control everything ??
The artefacts belongs and should or must go back to the benin kingdom.
Are agree
Benin kingdom must take back their property, if not the fg will take over with Nigerian poor maintenance culture, it was be stolen or left to ruin. We aren't even sure if this nation will remain one
Ẹdo tọ the world, Ọba gha rompers Ise
Iseeeeee
These are not just mere decorative artifacts as everyone now calls them. These are were treasures of immense importance looted from Sacred Shrines in the palace of the Oba of Benin. Mark my words " Treasures of immense importance " in the Sacred shrines of our great Oba. These treasures will be returned to Benin and the Oba of Benin is the only known Spiritual Custodian of the treasures.
People are worried about the return of the artifacts to the federal government because of the way things are going with this tribal government
Nice one
If it's left in the hands of FG, they might just use it to take loans🙄
You got that right!
🤣🤣🤣 Edo people love “one Nigeria” more than anyone. They won't mind.
We know the current Buhari FG as terrorists sympathizers. We know what the Taliban did in Afghanistan to the historical monuments there. They tore them down. Don't trust Buhari and is people. They will say value physical artefacts is "Haram".
@@ADE-of-LAGOS Edo people won't mind oh as long as “one nigeria” is preserved. They gave the greatest support to the NA during the BIAFRAN war and will do so again. Even if those artefacts are destroyed by the fulanis, they don't mind.
@@juninhofreekick4912 stop your lie mongering and stop generalising. Go check out the senators who wasn’t present in the House to make their stand known during the vote taking for electronic transmission of electoral results, 9 was from the SW and 7 from the SE or vice versa, what I am trying to say is that there are people in all region who do not want Nigeria to divide to single only Edo out is being mischievous, same thing you will say about Delta, live them alone, the fact that they don’t want to join Biafra doesn’t not mean they want one Nigeria.
It belongs to benin Kingdom
Antiquities of Benin empire goes back to centuries.....
Benin empire goes back to centuries trading with the bight of Biafra for centuries upon centuries.......
Thanks for your good job. Please they should not forget the cons that they tuck they should bring it back.
The artifact have a huge history to igodomigodo people present day benin....
Yes ooooo!
We are not subject to Nigeria.
This even be discussed because the world knows were this art belong
This Tradition Irena was took away in 17th ,during that time,nothing Like Nigeria,was Benin Kingdom.so must be under, Oba Place,cos was here they took them,away,not fulani Govt to control,it,Letter they Call it,pagans items.
So true
Because foreign exchange is involved. That's why lie mohamand is interested.
We are not benefiting anything inside to help with the artefacts
First time I'm seeing this female host......omo she's VERY FINE.
She is there but more in the evening News.
yes she,s fine with her natural hair and beauty.
Arise News know how to select them.
@@touchnot7334 my sis no be lie ooo😂😂😂😂
The FGN shouldn't encourage another secession
By the grace of God
Even the Edo want to secede with Delta to make their own country, every right thinking native of Nigeria will demand for secession.
@@touchnot7334 Leave Delta alone. Go for your Bini republic. Or are you tired of “one Nigeria” which you love so much?
@@juninhofreekick4912 Delta was part of Benin territory, including Lagos and some other states. Delta was the last territory be divided from Benin by Gowon, i maybe wrong..lol
@@ikp4success no way. The late oba of benin, criminally advised gowon to forgo the aburi accord and create states lyk bendel and the rest.
Edo should go for edo or bini republic and stop doing attache. Enough of your wild goose chase lyk confused people. U're descendants of a great kingdom. Stop begging delta to join you. Go for it alone. Or better still, join your oduduwa cousins.
Benin stuff belongs to benin
How are you all sure the Europeans will release these artifacts to either of the parties interested. Let the European keep if not taken to Benin.
👁
Please federal government oba of Benin and his agent are killing the indigenous people of the land, this is called for help from the federal government.
You are a childish and careless with words, why will Oba be killing you and why will you be calling on those killing our people to come to your rescues?
@@osagunmwedeobayagbonna1176 can you her comments?
Those "Artefacts" were stolen from the Palace of His Royal Majesty then, therefore it belongs to His Royal Majesty, Oba Ewuare 2, Oba ghato okpere Isee. "Aiguobasinmwin" give to Ceaser what's Ceaser, to God what's God. All governments FG, State government should stay out of the question of whose custody the Artefacts should go. This is not politics, give our Royal Father his belongings.
That's what you get when campaign for one Nigeria so benin people deal with it
My chief let go .when all their first born starts dying one by one. They will return it.
You people never see anything yet until Fulanis and Hausas demand your manhood one day weak elders and obas !!!??
Ok sir, if this is your contribution to the subject matter, thanks.
Who is this uncircumcised element?
Ask oba of benin,why has he not been able to build museums for the artefacts produces by d igun people ?we have artefacts better than d one that was stolen, he's doing notin about it
The artifacts belongs to the Bini people. It is for the glory for the Benin people that these things should be returned.
It is also for the glory of your tribesmen that made these artifacts too.
Kudos to your ancestors. You should be proud of your heritage. We are proud of you all.
Foster are among the betrayals
So British carry oba royal dress? That one serious oh. Those British wicked oh. Make them tell Nigerians Watin them do with those things. Them go sell am oh, I nor trust fulani heardsmen at all. I hear say person sell only one for 5m dollars. Chai. Nigeria government go thief am go sell. Lolz. Lie muhammed go thief am oh.
What's this song say you left people
There is no money in museum business especially in Africa. It might be gathering dust under the Oba of Benin bed. A trust of experts will best manage it. Tell me what monument the Nigerian centre for museum and monument managed well? The Nik art etc what is their value today?
FG should be careful, we Binis are warlords......if anything gi wrong we will break away from Nigeria at once, Oba Ovonramen never gave or sign out the sovereignty of Great Benin Kingdom as nation to the British Government.
Then go for Bini Republic and stop carrying “one nigeria” on your head.
@@juninhofreekick4912 another agitator opportunist, we the Bini's are not the kind of dogs that only bark's but can't bite neither do we rants all over social medias like you guys, we act when it's requires!!!
@@osagunmwedeobayagbonna1176 face your one Nigeria in peace and enjoy your bini minority status. Don't forget to stick to your edo boundary. Good luck.
@@juninhofreekick4912 you just don't know anything 🤦🏾♀️
@@letsjustdoitdoit8614 ur oba is an employee of the govt. He cannot dictate for anyone, as he is under the payroll of the state. Without it, hunger will finish him. The best solution for you is to go for Bini Republic or quench in your “one nigeria”.
Ogun dey kill Nigeria Federal Government? Where were they when the British Invaded Benin Kingdom.
They will never teach the history in school...instead of lying and corrupt
Criminal Obaseki
The artifact does not belong to the oba of Benin it belong to the whole Benin land. The indigenous people of Edo State have been oppressed by the oba of Benin and his agent. Oba of Benin is killing the igodomigodo for human sacrifice please federal government should help the indigenous people of Edo State are can never have peace if this evil oba continue there.
What is this one saying? Are you normal?
Hello women can go away please just respect yourself.
