Reasoning and the Spirit of Leadership: Pathway to Development of Africa

Baraburu Goodnews Young

Abstract


Nobody is born into this world with immunity to problems and needs, neither has any man been born without the problems-inducing and tempestuous human nature. Man is an embodiment of needs, and that progressive, exciting, entertaining and challenging understanding is a prerequisite and panacea to the existential burden of man. Interestingly, the processing of the character and intellect of Africans is the sponsorship and promotion of quality performance of governance in the continent. Transformation of lives and living conditions is easily demonstrated and impacted by the personification of the virtues of leadership, for it is the greatest mystery for Africans to dramatize development and enter into the new world order of qualitative living.
Situating leadership with its “offspring” of virtue within the context of profound reasoning actuates good and objective investigations, interpretations and solutions to the intriguing socio-political intricacies and needs of Africans, thus, making them to experience and love happiness and peace. This scholarly investment is a redirection and guidance of mental resources into profitable and excellent performance in leadership in Africa and to dawn a new beginning of fresh and new thinking patterns and living conditions oriented in problem-solving and happiness centeredness.
