Gowon legit took a 400 year old Benin Bronze out of the National Museum and travelled with it to dash Queen Elizabeth in England.

What a complete and total IDIOT.
If he had taken a Ben Enwonwu, I would not even quarrel. What type of lack of good judgement makes you exhibit such crass cultural illiteracy?
It's actually very interesting. The colonizers THEMSELVES used Nigeria's money and bought this bronze head from Britain and returned it to the National Musuem of Nigeria. Then along comes Jacky Boy the useful idiot
Colonizers bought back a stolen heirloom and returned it to the owner (with the owners money). Then a so-called leader just gifted it back to them. Chai. What a country.
