Ghana (University of Cape Coast) UCC@60 Float draws massive crowd
Management, staff and students of University of Cape Coast (UCC) defied the scorching sun to embark on a three-hour mega street float as part of the 60th anniversary celebration of the University.
Clad in UCC@60 paraphernalia and accompanied by loud music blasting through speakers mounted on fully-loaded UCC@60 branded articulated trucks as well as brass band music, the mammoth crowd began the float from Victoria Park in the central business district of Cape Coast through some principal streets and ended at the Club House of the University.
