In 2004, a chance encounter in Nigeria led to the return of two of the country鈥檚 ancient artworks, the looted Benin Bronzes.

The treasures were among thousands stolen from Benin City by the British Army in 1897, and acquired by museums around the world.

More than a century later, Tim Awoyemi and Steve Dunstone were on a charity trip when they were approached by campaigners demanding the bronzes return.

The two men vowed to help, but it took them 10 years before they were able to fulfil that promise, as Tim Awoyemi tells Jane Wilkinson.
