    No. @britishmuseum :: you don’t have the power to loan back what you stole. These don’t belong to you. They belong to Nigeria. Apologize and return them immediately - with interest.https://twitter.com/AJEnglish/status/1071728665770115073 …

        The audacity of Europeans who "discover" what belongs to others and just think it's theirs! What if somebody robbed your graves, took down Stone Henge, removed artifacts from old churches? Culture isn't valid unless it's yours?

        The British still have a colonial mentality, it’s all bout control - they feel they a right to whatever is yours and you’d better be grateful that they let you even look at it. 😂 It’s why Nigeria is still a huge CLUSTERFUCK. It’s down to the Brits. Don’t even mention Zimbabwe.

        If the artifacts were not looted, how did the British come into possession of them? She failed to explain that! Waiting to hear her fancy explanation!

        Wouldn't that museum be empty if they returned the cultural artifacts that they "acquired?"
