I begin a special series of answering questions sent to us by listeners. This Season 2 Episode 6, answers the question: "How do I protect a Nollywood film's copyright across several African countries?"

Further check out my website (Prof. Samuel Samiái Andrews, SJD, LL.M, LL. B (Hons), BL, LL.M) and YouTube Channel ( A Guide to Intellectual Property Law and the African Film Industry) "Legal Environment of Filmmaking" for detail presentations that answers this question.

I continue in this episode 5 (Please Listen to S.2 E. 5) the examination and analysis of how my visit to cities/countries in the course of my professional duties as an IP academic, IP scholar, IP Professor and IP enthusiast have intersected and impacted the teaching/research of the subject/specialty.
