British museum agrees to return stolen Benin Bronzes to Nigeria

A museum in London has decided to return a collection of treasures stolen in the 19th century to Nigeria. The items, including the famous Benin Bronzes, were taken as European powers scrambled for colonial domination of Africa in the 19th century. But as Western museums start to reckon with their colonial past, many are choosing to give back what is not rightfully theirs. Al Jazeera’s Rory Challands reports from London.
