Disney is facing backlash over its trademark on the Swahili phrase "Hakuna Matata". The term, which appeared in Disney's 1994 film "The Lion King", is commonly used in eastern and southern Africa. It loosely translates to "no worries".

According to Deadline, Zimbabwean activist Shelton Mpala started an online petition calling on Disney to relinquish its trademark of the phrase. Till now more than 138,000 people have signed the petition.
