Document from the year 2024 in the subject Law - Philosophy, History and Sociology of Law, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Arts), course: African Political Philosophy, language: English, abstract: This book interrogates one of the major wrongs of the African Polity namely, the crisis of leadership recruitment. Haven fallen from a formerly epistemic purity of the past, the Nigerian state is conflict of ¿truth¿ and ¿facts¿ as opposed to falsehood/fake news. Today, poor leadership recruitment has aided corruption and instilled the culture of falsehood, propaganda and fake news. In the process created a huge gap between the anticipated gains of democracy and dividends of democracy. This Book argues that the masses in Nigeria are like boats on the volatile sea without a leadership guide and that, democratic consolidation in Nigeria suffers too often because of the problem of failure of leadership. The paper submits that, the Nigerian governance culture is fueled by kakistocratic values that appeal more to ethnic and religious supremacist tendencies than acceptable national values of truth, communality and complementarity which the George Akume leadership philosophy (Ayatutu) upholds. We submit further that, this leadership philosophy herein tagged Ayatutuism strengthens national institutions, manages diversities, establishes and sustains a Nigerian nation worth living in and dying for. Drawing lessons from this leadership recruitment model, we argue the conclusion that, in seeking the whole from the units of individuals through this leadership model, the ontological qualities of mental magnitude, spiritual depth, selflessness and incorruptibility should be made to service this commune-centric leadership model.
