Confucius Political Philosophy as a Panacea to Nigeria Political Crises

Abstract

Democracy as practiced in Nigeria raises fundamental questions. It is besieged with series of problems ranging from corruption to morbid tenacity for power. Besides, political crises tug the nation in different direction and insecurity is on the increase. Electoral violence begets further sophistication across years. With a view to arresting this trend, this paper explores the basic rudiment of Confucius political Philosophy to generate a pedagogy of leadership for leaders.
