Nigeria’s First Lady, Patience Jonathan added one more Honorary Doctorate degree to her gallery after a South Korean University honoured her.
This brings to four the number of doctorate degrees she has received since her husband clinched the presidency in Nigeria.
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.
