The president's wife, Patience Jonathan, on
Thursday added one more
Honorary Doctorate degree to her gallery after a
South Korean University
honoured her.
It is Mrs. Jonathan's fourth doctorate since
becoming Nigeria's First Lady.
The awarding institution, Hansei University, said
they honoured Mrs.
Jonathan because she had worked"hard for many
good causes."
"She's a humanitarian who has dedicated her life
to working for the less
privileged in Nigeria and Africa especially for
women and
children,"president and Chancellor ofHansei
University, Sung-Hae Kim said.
"Her vision as the defender of the poor in Nigeria
fits into Hansei
University's motto of a practising Christian. Now
she's part of our
community," Prof. Kim added.
The university also said it chose her for the
degree because of her
dedication to prayer.
"I was surprised that she travelled here for the
Church Growth International
conference years back to pray for Nigeria. For
her selfless work, Hansei
University confers this degree on her,"Yonggi
Cho, co-founder of the Hansei
University.
"I was just doing my own thing not knowing that
in far away Asia everything
was being noted. I want to assure you all that
with God's help I will do
more," Mrs. Jonathan said, thanking the
Koreans.
"My grandma used to say: `Whatever little you
have, share; If you have a
thousand and you can't share, you won't share a
million if you have'.
The News Agency of Nigeria reported that the
ceremony was attended by
wives of the governors of Benue and Ebonyi,
wives of the Chief of Army Staff
and the Chief of Naval Staff, among other
dignitaries.
