The following is Splinter's explanation to Raph as why Slash is the leader in an unknown episode of Season 4.

Raph: But, sensei, why did you choose Spike?

Splinter: My son, the reason I chose Slash to be the leader is because of your friendship. You two were close 6 years ago, and now you fight together as allies, as brothers, as family. You see?

Raph: (looks down, then at Splinter) Hai, Sensei.
