So, it is the individual Museum, the trustees of that museum, who decide on whether they can return or want to return artefacts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo for example, the Horniman Museum in the UK recently returned 72 Benin artifacts, Cambridge University returned the cockerel, called The Okukor, a beautiful cultural heritage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, we are encouraging them to think actively about this. They are, obviously. When something is returned, it has to obviously be put into a place where we can ensure that it will be well protected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, what they\u2019re doing in Benin City is building beautiful new museum which is under the guidance of the famous Scanian architect, but it will be a wonderful museum.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I think another idea that is being considered, and this is what the governor is thinking abou; it is that the ownership can transfer to the Government of Nigeria, but they will then lend back to say the British Museum.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo you flip it around because obviously there\u2019s so many of these, and you would not have the ability to accommodate all of them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd that can be a win win because lots of people could still see the artifacts, whether here or in London, but the ownership could transfer, that\u2019s an idea that\u2019s been discussed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, there\u2019s been a proposition from the governor. So it\u2019s an ongoing debate, but I know Germany and many other countries are now really moving quite fast to return a number of these beautiful Benin bronzes,\u201d Laing said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Laing, has said the United Kingdom is encouraging institutions and facilities in possession of the Benin artefacts to return them to Nigeria.
