What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a late 20th century Ashanti pot metal / bronze lost wax cast statue of a king being carried by servants in a ceremony. This would be an extraordinarily large Ashanti Bronze of very decorative value, made for the collector´s market and not as tribal art as such. The market for similar items is rather difficult, only if you can prove a provenance, dating the item back to the 19th century, it would have some value. The estimate is based on similar items without provenance offered or sold at auction.
