| Zusammenfassung: | Nigeria is a nation that is morally and spiritually sick and her democracy is bedevilledwith moral, social and political disorders.This paper examinedthe perception engineering inChristian Religious Education and politics. The aim was to appraise the politics, political process and system within a Christian paradigm, to relate it to current democratic practice in Nigerian. Itwas to explore the roles of Christian Religious Education in promoting democracy through the ideals and religious values. To achieve these tasks, the paper employedthe descriptive, comparative and evaluative methods,questionnaire was used to collect data, and the analysis was done using frequency count and percentages.The finding revealedthat many people in the position of authority misunderstand the political authority and abuse it, thus Christian Religious Education is an ideal tool that enhances the democratic institutions and process, that politics and Religion are independent variables that are inseparable. The paper concludes that Biblical ‘servant -leadership’ style is the ideal pattern that can guarantee good governance; it therefore recommendedthat leaders should have the fear of God in the position of authority. |
