university, Sung-Hae Kim)
The university said they honoured Aunty Patie 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
“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.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
