Have you noticed that there are more Biafranigerian artifacts in European museums than in BiafraNigeria? Many of these works of art were stolen from Biafranigeria during colonial rule. While Biafranigeria is busy repaying illegal foreign debt, the Europeans continue to detain these stolen African treasures. Recently, I inquired about a mask that was said to have been the centerpiece of FESTAC 1977. That mask is in England, stolen by the British larcenists. Now, Biafranigeria's inept lawmakers have asked Obusonjo to demand the return of those treasures. Will he do it?
At the risk of providing the litmus test for Yinka's suspicion that I am your clone (or vice-versa, who's older?), I couldn't but join in this discussion.
The Brits are indeed thieves and have the most deadened conscience in the Universe. They stole our treasures and continue to steal our wealth. These are very obvious. What do you say about their continued stealing of our dignity?
Recently in Gatwick, I watched the so-called random searching of travelers at the point of check-in. It was a most nauseating spectacle watching 3 black people, 2 men and 1 woman, apparently all carrying the green curse, standing in front of 2 Asian women in Uniform going through their belongings. Needless saying that not even the lady's lingerie was spared (and this wasn't behind a screen). Strangely too, the ladies were not wearing any gloves. Were they hastily assembled on sighting these black folks? It was a sight to watch. One of the men alleged racism and a Caucasian looking female supervisor was summoned. She did nothing, just said that indeed the search was random. That's Britain for you: den of thieves, racists, liars, and worse.
In this regard, the US had upped the ante. To show real randomness, there appears a computer marking "S" on one's boarding pass. The fellow is pulled aside and his person and effects subjected to another round of scrutiny. For me, that's fair enough.
All those treasures you allude to came from South of the Benue so do not expect the normadic desert dwellers to lend their voices. They have no cultures aside from wantom blood spilling. Do they understand the meaning of heritage? If they did, they wouldn't be casting away their male sons into the streets to become almajiris without roots and any sense of belonging. They reserve the females of course as a stable for sourcing receptacles for their kinky and depraved sex.

Of course the Brits are thieves, why do you think they support the abomination called Nigeria during the civil war, Is to cover their tracks. Obusonju will never asked them to return it, Obasanjo will tell you to provide evidence. He will say "if you give me evidence if I don't go after it no se nobi Obasanjo born me", and that will be the end of it.

I consider it an honor when someone confuses my writing with that of other persons who are evidently gifted writers. Some time ago, I was accused of being a clone of Wind. Now, Yinka is mixed up about you and me.
To complement your Adamu = Bature= Ugali maxim, may be we could restate the suspicions of Yinka and others as the following corollary: Anu Nti = Ohafia = Damian = Amanda = OU = Chiboy = Wind = Ambrose. If the rest of you would let me, I could start marketing your writing for money. I would offer you the rights to my own works of authorship, but I hesitate, as I do not expect to make the Pulitzer anytime soon. Besides, there is not too much of my writing easily accessible to Biafranigerians since I refrain from writing too much in Biafranigerian circles, lest I be accused of journalism.
As long as no one is saying Damian = Nigerian, I have no problem.
Who is older? To non-Biafrans, this should always be a chicken v. egg inquiry. If we are as tough to them as M. I. Okpara was to their ancestors, that is because the child is father of the man. It is their riddle to solve.

Sadly, the Church of England was the recipient of some of the stolen artifacts. We know that the Church of England is an extension of British Royalty. Notice the cruel euphemism of the Brits as they characterize their theft of a sacred carving from Ethiopia.
quote: A delegation of religious leaders from Ethiopia is travelling to Edinburgh to collect a sacred carving which was unearthed in a church cupboard. The holy wooden tabot, or tablet, is thought to be more than 400 years old.
Did they say "unearthed?" Why then do they complain that some nigerians are unearthing their bank accounts in 419 excavations.
They go on to painstakingly tell us that the British invaders of Ethiopia were "hostages"
quote:It is believed that it was taken from Ethiopia by British soldiers trying to free hostages from the home of Emperor Theodore the Second in 1868.
Has it occurred to these Europeans that the nigerians are merely engaging in 419 excavations to recover or rescue money that colonialists stole (read held hostage) since colonial times? If a violent invader could call himself a hostage when captured, then the nonviolent 419 scam is a gentleman's recovery exercise.
In the case of the Ethiopian carving, the British were aware that "[t]he tablet can only be seen by priests." Even today, the British and Rev. John McLuckie, who is said to have "rediscovered" the carving had this to say:
quote:It was rediscovered in a cupboard by the Reverend John McLuckie, who had worked in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Abbaba, and recognised its religious significance.
"It was very exciting because I knew it was an object of great significance and holiness," he said.
Yet, they defiled the holy carving with their hordes of sacrilegious grunts from the British Army.
