Koitalel's assassination — should the UK apologize?

Colonel Meinertzhagen invited Koitalel to peace negotiations and then shot him in cold blood. This is well documented even in Meinertzhagen's own diary. The Nandi community has been seeking an official apology from the British government and the return of Koitalel's remains and artifacts. Do you think this is achievable? What precedents exist for colonial-era reparations and apologies? This is not just a historical issue — it affects Nandi identity and healing today.
