A university has come under fire for proposing to make the first British person of African heritage to become a professor of history in the UK redundant and cut the course he runs.
Prof Hakim Adi, an academic and expert in the history of Africa and the African diaspora is at risk of termination by the University of Chichester, which has suspended all recruitment to the master’s by research (MRes) course in the history of Africa and the African diaspora.
