Alice Annum is Ghana's original 'Baby Jet'.
She gained the nickname after winning two silver medals at the 1970 Commonwealth Games, for the 100m and 200m sprint races.
Alice was also the first woman to represent Ghana at the Olympics. Throughout her career, not only did she compete as a runner, she also competed in long jump.
In more recent years the name 'Baby Jet' has been taken on by former footballer, Asamoah Gyan.
But Alice knows that she is the original. She tells Gill Kearsley the story of how she got the nickname.
