She said the Doctor of Humanities degree shall be given to Gov. Vi for being an embodiment of an empowered woman in both the world of showbusiness and politics.
Delicia Alfelor-Tibi, UNEP Executive Vice-President was quoted saying, “In politics, there are no scripts, no rehearsals, no cuts or retakes, here she is to be judged for her worth beyond the help of makeup, props and sets, magical lights and special effects. Here she is to be measured by the strength of character, drive for competence, and will for compassion.”
