It takes just a little time for political
figures vying for positions to have their name in murky waters. This is story
of the Republican Presidential hopeful, Hernan Cain who is been accused by
three women of sexually harassing them while heading the United States National
Restaurant Association in the ‘90s.
It is not strange for someone to always
come out with stories from the past to taint the image of politicians, if they
really had any. But when three different people come out with the same type of
accusation it is interesting. In Nigeria, the accusers after sometime may go
back on their words or maybe after receiving financial inducement or death
threats.
Nigerians will say ’there is no smoke
without fire’ and I agree. Ironically, Cain says the accusations are having
positive impact on campaign donations. Maybe it’s a sort of motivation for him,
I know not. But I am sure, this will leave a scar which will dent his political
career.
