Guidance is an issue that affects all of humankind. But, visionary as well as true leaders usually, are hard to find. Not only are we impacted by this phenomenon, but we are also called to exercise it.
Whether we are bracketed in leading geopolitik or business, guiding innocent minds, leading a family tree, a sports team committee, organising a tv dinner, a class project, a carpool or a household, or just standing for what is best at every turn of man endeavour -the public has a presidentship role to take the part of. In other words, we are each called upon to be custodians of what is preferred and good, lasting and of financial worth, for those in our care at one point of time or another.
It’s as a result of an defined lacuna in worthy, faithful leadership in a lot economies of the human race that these posers were thrown up not long ago: “Whatever happened to prime-ministership? Have all the great leaders gone from the earth scene?” The search for true, financial worths-based presidency is not limited to the global arena, but also relevant in the task of socio-political, cultural, educational, and moral transformation of developing economies such as Nigeria’s.
As well as, why does a true official wish to demonstrate values in guardianship? Financial worths are regarded as esteemed qualities which are intrinsically desirable and have importance. That is why experts in the creatureities have stated benefits as “our very core, the especial essence of who we are as creature beings.” Such demonstrable as well as authentic values on which the Nigerian society should be created upon include transparency, love of one’s country, personal straightforwardness, fear of God, courage, transformational headship, accountability, vision, creativity, knowledge, character and passion.
Incidental power also, has been disclosed as a form of commencement. In order to lead effectively, a someone then, should be willing to meet the longings of the individuals in the crew or group. It would be recalled the time it noticed the apparent inadequacy in the prime-ministership of some economies in Europe, London Sunday Times published an article of commerce with the title, “Whatsoever Happened to Real Someones?”
In a write-up, the reading public was asked array of digging questions as these: “Would you expect to learn anything from them officials? Do you expect them to do anything inspiring or creative, or even just the golden thing? We have attained a real low point in headship, lower than at any other time in recent history….”
The detail of action not alone applies in the Western human race where the people combat presidency problems of late, it also appropriate to the Nigerian situation, as the assumed most populous African nation on earth needs is financial worths-based, visionary presidency. It’s a powerful, well-timed plea for the emergence of a best kind of incidental power that can free Nigerians from the grip of its a lot socio-economic problems resulting from poor governance or maladministration.
While underscoring the wish for anyone entrusted with the sacrosanct command of headship in any mankind community, Walter Lippmann, a late American news pundit, in his syndicated column “Today as well as Tomorrow”, yet had attempted another description of officials as “the custodians of a sovereignty’s ideals, of the ideas it cherishes, of its permanent hopes, of the faith which makes a country with its own government out of a mere alliance of individuals.”
