The 150-year old artfacts were returned by the British Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum, but on a three-year loan, not on a permanent basis.  - BBC reports

                                    As interesting as this is and the impact it would have in fostering international unity, isn't this what we call blackmail. 
I own something, you stole it but instead of giving it back so everything will be alright. You give me back what was orginally mine on a loan, what was mine! You also are saying it is to foster unity... how will I be happy when you are holding what is mine to gain something from me. 
After all this years, yet nothing had been learnt about how to properly address the colonial injustice. 
As a history student, this is so funny and hypocritical. At least we see an effort.

                                    Yeah... I strongly concur.
Colonial injustice have subtly been appeased in the face of Africans by petty gestures and hypocritical supports from out there. We've been spoiled and they established themselves using the wealth we had.
Africa is wealthy in all honesty. It's just sad that Colonial injustice has not been properly tackled cos we keep taking the cases back to them. Who would want to judge himself?  1 year ago

                                    These colonial masters have taken us too much for a ride. You stole my belonging, and instead of return it with an apology and remorseful heart, you claim to return it on loan? I hope the destination authorities are not indictable in this throat-grabiing arrangement. 11 months ago
