Yoruba is one of Nigeriaâs major ethnic groups, and it makes up about 21% of the population, according to World Atlas. People who identify with the group mainly live in the west of the country and speak the Yoruba language.

As we all know, on January 1, 2020, the United Kingdom (UK) left the European Union (EU) under Brexit. There hasn’t been an immediate impact on trademark protection as a result of this change. However, if you have a EU trademark and you fail to “clone” your EU mark in the UK, you will eventually lose that trademark’s UK protection.
To preserve UK protection, you must file a comparable UK trade mark application by September, 30 2021, based on your existing or pending EU trademark.
We are currently actively doing that for our clients, working with foreign associates providing a 50% discount for such filings between now and the deadline.
