Wife of Nigeria's president, 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 of Hansei 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.
