Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper has examined the influence of good governance on the growth and development of Nigeria from the Biblical point of view. The work explicated the importance of the political ideology of Jesus and the influence of David’s leadership in Jewish nation growth to golden era. The paper, then, analyzed the commitment of Jonathan to good governance in Nigeria. Having used historical and contextual methodology, the work discovered that Jonathan administration was the dirtiest in corruption and the deadliest in insecurity. His regime has primed Nigerians into poverty trap and the nation groaned daily in unendurable insecurity. For Nigeria to develop, the work recommended that Jonathan’s administration must overhaul the security system to seriously fight insurgency, ritual killings, incessant kidnapping, banks bombing and robbery. The present corrosive political system must be changed to regional federalism. The work concluded that Davidic intrepid leadership and Jesus’ political ideology must be imbibed by the Nigerian leaders. Keywords: Governance, Jonathan, Nigeria, Biblical, David, Jesus.
