On her new role as the country's first professor of diversity
Professor Uduak Archibong grew up in Nigeria and following in her mother's footsteps, trained to be a nurse. She chose the job because it was one of the only professions to offer a scholarship for poorer families. A gifted student she went on to university, becoming the first to graduate from her faculty with a first class degree.
Now she's in England and has been appointed the country's first professor of diversity. Her task at Bradford University is to act as a 'race champion' on behalf of staff and students.
She joins Jenni to talk about what she hopes to achieve in her new job.
