So we cannot have the Benin Bronzes because the museum also has the Ethiopian crosses and documents. The Egyptians cannot have the Rosetta Stone because the museum has the Parthenon Marbles. Somebody should help the museum to provide a better argument than this.DR.KWAME OPOKUhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10807521316037049823noreply@blogger.com
