"Students at Queens' College were outraged after the event invitation used language from the Lion King in what some described as a showing of 'cultural appropriation'.

The original invite was scrapped after using the words 'Hakuna Matata' and 'raffia' instead of 'hello' and 'friends'.

Both terms are widely associated with Disney's 1994 film the Lion King, which tells the story of an African lion cub succeeding his father.

Activist students also lashed out at the evening’s menu, claiming it tried “to reduce an entire continent into three courses”.

The formal meal, which took inspiration from Senegal, Morocco, South Africa and Nigeria, allegedly did not have blessing from the university’s African Society."
