Group wants Tinubu to fast track construction of Benin Royal Museum, sack DG of National Museum

An appeal to President Tinubu to immediately fast-track the construction of BENIN ROYAL MUSEUM and also sack the DG of National Museum.

With a heart full of happiness, we want to congratulate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his swearing-in as the 16th President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and wish to use this medium to urge him to always put the interest of the common Nigerians into deep consideration before implementing policies, programmes and projects for the citizens.

However, in order to cushion the effect of fuel subsidy removal, we wish to advise you to immediately provide palliatives to all Nigerians.

Mr. President Sir, you could recall that prior to the general elections, you visited Edo State and perhaps our revered Palace wherein you promise to use your lofty office if elected as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to construct “BENIN ROYAL MUSEUM.”

Mr. President, Sir. We are delighted that your wishes has come to stay and it is on this premise we wish to remind you to help fast-track the construction of “BENIN ROYAL MUSEUM” and speedy repatriation of our stolen artefacts with its volume of proceeds across the globe as promised by your esteemed self.

Mr. President, Sir, in realizing your promise to our revered Throne and the good people of Benin Kingdom without herculean task, we humbly wish to advise you to immediately sack the Director General (DG) of National Museum, Mr. Abba Isa Tijanni, for being an impediment to the actualization of the return of Benin artefacts to the great Oba of Benin Kingdom as gazetted by Federal Government on March 28th, 2023 and by extension, diverting funds meant for the construction of BENIN ROYAL MUSEUM with his collaborators.

Mr. President, Sir, the moment you sack the DG of National Museum, Abba Isa Tijanni, he should provide some answers pertaining the role he played in the delay of our stolen artefacts and the diversion of funds meant for the construction of BENIN ROYAL MUSEUM.

Mr. President, once again, we say a big congratulations to you.

Oba Gha To Kpe Re Ise!
