Germany to return artefacts stolen in Cameroon, 2 others

The German government has agreed to return artefacts stolen from some African countries by colonial rulers, IgbereTV reports

The affected artefacts were reportedly looted by German officials from Cameroon, Namibia and Tanzania during the colonial era.

The Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation, which disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday, said the artefacts would be permanently returned to their original countries in the coming months.

The artefacts include shell-studded statue of a mother goddess named Ngonnso, which holds great spiritual significance for the Nso’ people of North-West Cameroon
