Finally, Chief Dumo Lulu-Briggs believes that the state is a contractual creation that is purposed basically for human safety and comfort. Governance should therefore be informed by such a philosophy that focuses on the pursuit of happiness. Man must have the society where he can freely live in peace, experience joy and enjoy the good things of life as long as his actions don’t contravene the laws.
Leadership must be about service to humanity. All classes within the society must feel the impact of governance.
