<![CDATA[The paper aims at resolving the issue of egocentrism using the principle of common good in Ibuanyidanda Philosophy within the context of Nigeria’s political leadership. The paper makes analyses of the concepts of egocentrism, leadership, common Good and Ibuanyidanda Philosophy. The paper examines egocentrism in Nigeria’s political leadership, and identifies it as a menace which among other ravages, has consequences of economic, social and moral decline in the nation.
