While bestowing the unique title oqn the US based Medical Doctor in his palace in Ibeku land, Ogurube Ibeku prayed for more of God’s blessings and favour upon their daughter who has in different ways impacted positively on the people, as some elderly persons in her community are on her monthly pay roll despite the economy.

“It’s a thing of joy seeing your children progress, it’s another feather added to her personality.
“This will serve as an advice to others. Some people are doing well but feel reluctant to impact on others because they’re afraid that the people may start attacking them. It’s good to do good to people. I want to advise that if there’s any way you can put smiles on others, try to do so because pays to be good.”
Bawas enjoined his prominent daughter, Dr. Mrs. Doris keep the light aglow and not to relent in her godly deeds, especially in the vine yard of God.

Also, Chief Jackson Emereuwa Ochiabuto, one of the elderly beneficiaries has this to say: ” Doris is a very good daughter of ours who has been assisting so many of us. We’re very happy to have her and are proud of her. She deserves this honour and we pray God to continue to protect and preserve her from the plans of the wicked”.
