ABSTRACT

Intercultural Philosophy can be loosely described as a cumulative viewpoint of varied worldviews and the underlying logic that subsists in them. It can be understood too as philosophies from various cultures and backgrounds with overarching lessons for humankind. These cultures could be Eastern, Western, African and so on. Imperatively then, intercultural Philosophy can aid the process of comparative approaches to the study of any phenomenon common to humankind. Hence, using the method of critical analysis, this study interrogates the leadership Question in Africa concerning corruption, underdevelopment, stay-put in power by African leaders and science and technological deficiencies. The purpose of the study is to glean from the cultural Philosophies of another clime especially the Orientals and Westerners on how they tackle the issue of corruption in leadership to mitigate Africa’s leadership challenges to its barest minimum thereby opening up new vistas for Africa's ultimate leadership development from what works for others.
