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 dignitaries.
