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." (Like seriously, OCB, shut up, keep reading jare)
"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'indeedin Nigeria fits into Hansei University's motto of a practicing 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 traveled 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.
"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,"Mrs. Jonathan said, thanking the Koreans.
"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'.
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.
