honorary degree from the Hansei University in South Korean, our first lady said“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.
Meanwhile, the university said they honoured Patience 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. 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.” The university chancellor Sung-Hae Kim, said
“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, said
