Cape Coast, Dec, 25, GNA - The University of Cape Coast (UCC) on Wednesday honoured retired workers including 24 junior staff, 17 senior staff, and 12 senior members.

They were presented with sets of living room furniture and deep freezers for their meritorious service to the University.

Professor Naana Jane Opoku Agyemang, Vice Chancellor of UCC, said that the awards were to motivate active workers to work harder.

She commended the retirees for making strides in various fields to lift the image of the university.

Reverend Professor Emmanuel Adow Obeng, immediate past Vice Chancellor of UCC, on behalf of the retirees, expressed gratitude to the University and staff for the awards.

He said though most of the retirees joined the UCC when it was not financially sound, they worked hard to sustain the university.
