Photo : Dame Patience Jonathan Honoured With Doctorate Degree In South Korea
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.”
“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,”
”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’. Mrs. Jonathan said, thanking the Koreans.
“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.
