Taliban Love Triangle: Woman Gunned Down For Having Affair With Commander

A shocking video showing the public execution of a 22-year-old Afghan woman accused of adultery has sparked outrage.

The video shows her being shot repeatedly in the back in front of a baying crowd of bearded men in Parwan province just north of the capital Kabul.

The woman, named as Najiba, was married to a member of a hardline Taliban militant group and was accused of adultery with a Taliban commander, Parwan provincial spokeswoman Roshna Khalid said.

“Within one hour they decided that she was guilty and sentenced her to death. They shot her in front of villagers in her village, Qol,” she said, adding that the execution took place late last month.

Following the shooting a villager handed the video over to the provincial government and “the security forces are preparing a big operation to find the culprits”, she said.

The video opens with the woman, wrapped in a grey shawl, sitting at the edge of a ditch in a village surrounded by dozens of men, some perched on rooftops for a better view.

As she sits with her back to the crowd a bearded man is seen condemning adultery.

The video then shows a man in white being handed an AK47 rifle.

He approaches to within a couple of metres of the woman, aims and fires twice, missing each time. The third shot hits her in the back, she flings her arms wide and collapses.

He then fires another six shots into her body as the crowd cheers wildly. The shooter then fires four more shots into her body.

Timothy Cosmos Itoro is the 25-year-old ‘Pastor’ who was healing the mad man, Tunde, at Oke-Ado area of Ibadan on Thursday, 28th June, 2012 when he suddenly lost his senses and whose story was published on page 4 of the Friday 29 June, 2012 edition of the Nigerian Tribune. On Tuesday, 3rd July, he walked into the Tribune House, Imalefalafia, Ibadan accompanied by his brother, Blessing, after our reporter had put a call through to his mother to ask after him. They spoke with Taiwo Olanrewaju on Itoro’s journey to and return from insanity.

HE was still stressed up. He looked pale with parched lips. Considering his Thursday, 28 June, 2012 ordeal, he was not expected to look robust yet.

The 25-year-old security guard, who was working with one of the security outfits in Abuja, was posted to Ibadan on September 6, 2011, where he was given the onerous task of securing a building at Joyce B area of Ibadan, Oyo State.

According to the Akwa-Ibom State indigene, who was born and brought up in Ibadan, the owner of the building, a Lagos based banker, considered his age and asked him to learn a vocation if he wished.

Itoro, who is a member of the choir in his church, one of the new generation churches at Felele, Ibadan, said he did try to learn a vocation, but that wherever he went, he was turned down. Not only was he asked to come back, the young man believed that people were running away from him.

Unable to recollect when he began to notice that people were avoiding him though, it was clear that Itoro had lived a lonely and stereo-typed lifestyle in the last 10 months since he came to Ibadan.

When he could not find a job, he only went to church, visited the security guard of a white man living close to his place of work, went to Dugbe, Oke-Ado or Oja’ba markets to buy foodstuffs, aside that, he stayed indoors, all alone in the big building.

“Except at Christmas time, when the owner of the building came home, I was the only one in the house. I wet the flowers and pumped water and was paid N10, 000 as salary at the end of every month”, he said.

Also, Itoro had been bothered about the fact that he was living under a false identity. He is Timothy Cosmos Itoro and not Collins that he bears. He registered with the security company he works for as Collins and his Automated Teller Card (ATM) also bears Collins, which he is not.

So on the D-day, Itoro said he set out to achieve two goals; one, to let the world know that he was not Collins but Timothy and two, to “leave the earth” (die) because people did not like him.

On leaving home, he said he visited a church member, one Brother Aborisade, at Ladega’s compound at Oke-Ado, where they prayed together. He, thereafter, left for a popular hospital at Oke-Ado where he asked the doctor on duty to inject him to death. He said the doctor told the nurses on duty to chase him away, while the doctor left the hospital premises in his car.

“I was walking along Oke-Ado area when I saw the mad man. I crossed to his side of the road. I gave him the last money on me, five naira (N5). I only wanted to see if the mad man would run away from me. So, when I sat by his side and he did not run away from me, I sat there. I later held his legs and said, “Jesus, Jesus”.

“I am not a pastor, so I was not trying to heal him. I discovered that something entered into me and I took off my clothes. By then, a crowd had gathered. Water was poured on me. I was beaten on my chest. Some people put my clothes back on me so as not to be naked. Some pastors put anointing oil on me and carried me to one house where I was laid on the floor. They bought pure water and mineral for me. After sipping some of the mineral, I regained some strength.

“I was very weak. I couldn’t talk very well. I relaxed a bit but couldn’t walk by myself. When people had left, at about 8p.m, some people carried brooms; they beat me and poured hot water on me, saying,” where are you going, go back?” Itoro explained.

Our reporters at the scene of the event noted that nobody beat or poured hot water on him. His mother, Felicia, was contacted on phone by one of our reporters.

How Itoro got home, the Nigerian Tribune could not ascertain, but the young man said he got home later in the day, while his brother, Blessing continued the story.

Blessing Cosmos said there are three of them born to their parents. The three of them lived with their mother in Abuja until Itoro secured his employment and was transferred to Ibadan where their father lives. He said he got to know about Itoro’s case through his mother and boarded a night bus that same Thursday night in the company of his mother and both met Itoro at his Joyce B work place in Ibadan. “He is already receiving treatment.” He added.

Another problem the young man had was paucity of funds. He said two days after receiving his salary, it would have been spent, even as he said he ought to have been receiving N20,000 per month and not N10,000 because he worked two shifts, day and night.

All is not well at the home front too, as Itoro, who has been dismissed by the owner of the building at Joyce B road, said he did not want to live with his parents, who he said were separated. Although his brother promised to accommodate him, Itoro said he did not want to live with his brother because he has a family of his own.

It is not yet uhuru for Itoro, who though, could recollect most of the things that happened to him, is still undergoing some psychological problems. Call it frustration, depression or mental disorder at its early stage, Itoro too knows that all is not well with him. He spoke with bitterness against his parents and siblings, who he said knew what he was passing through and yet left him to his fate.

Although Blessing said their mum sent his brother N2, 000 when he complained that he didn’t have money on Tuesday before the incident, Itoro disclosed that the Thursday, June 28, 2012 ordeal was the third or fourth time he had suffered spiritual attack, twice at Yemetu area of Ibadan where he once resided.

As at press time, one thing was certain though, Itoro did not want to die again. When asked if he still wanted to die, he was hesitant and did not speak for a while. He later shook his head to signify his intention not to die. But on the insistent of this reporter, he spoke and said he did not want to die again. Even at that, a lot still needs to be done about Itoro medically, mentally, spiritually, psychologically and educationally.

– Drama unraveled at a church in Kapsabet after a pastor while delivering a sermon to the congregate was ambushed by police officers and cuffed in front of his followers.

Call it a case of having a wolf as the shepherd of many lost sheep, the officers who were forced to tell the congregation the reason to their act and lack of respect for the church, told the church that the pastor had been a ring leader of a gang of robbers that robbed a bank in Nakuru.

The church congregation were bitter with rage and accused the officers of holding the wrong person as their pastor was the most faithful and trust worthy pastors that ever existed.

They told the officers to have a look at the church that the pastor has helped in its growth.

“How on earth can search a holy man commit such crimes as you incriminate him?” they asked.

In support of the pastor the followers shouted:
“Pasta wetu, milango itafunguka tu. Wewe usijali tuko na wewe mpaka mwisho,” (our pastor do not worry, the doors will open. We are together to the end,)

The church was however dumb struck when the pastor confessed to them that the officers were not wrong and he was indeed a thief and an armed robber.

“The police have said the truth. I am a robber and I thought I could hide here among you. Now my running has hit a wall,” he said remorsefully.

Congregates left the church with their heads down as they all had thoughts of how the pastor had fooled them for a long time.

The Kenyan DAILY POST

Angelic Warfare

Another biblical variable that affects our lives is the spiritual battle raging between the forces of good and evil in the realm beyond our five senses. Remembering from Ezekiel 28 and Isaiah 14 how much power and wisdom God originally gave “Lucifer” should help us to understand how formidable a foe we now have, and how diligent we must be in resisting him.

If you read Daniel 10:1-14, you will see that Daniel saw a vision from God, but he did not know what it meant, so he asked God to show him. Three weeks later an angel showed up. He told Daniel that his prayer had been heard when he first prayed, and that he had at once left “Angel Headquarters” to bring him the answer.

So why did it take him three weeks to get there, you ask? Because Daniel did not have enough faith? No, it was because “the prince of the kingdom of Persia” withstood the angel twenty-one days. Of course this “prince” was not a human being, but a high-ranking, territorial evil spirit. We do not know the details of their confrontation during those three weeks, but this account makes it clear that the spiritual battle raging beyond our senses may be the reason why certain prayers take time— a little or a lot— to be answered.

Daniel’s attitude, however, is pivotal in this record. At the end of one day of prayer, he did not say to God, “Oh brother, you give me a vision and no explanation, and now you’re asleep up there! I quit!” Then twenty days later an angel pulls in and says, “Where’s Daniel?” No, it didn’t happen that way. Daniel continued to have faith and look to God, and he did receive the answer to his prayer.

A verse in the Church Epistles illustrates this same truth.

1 Thessalonians 2:18
For we wanted to come to you— certainly I, Paul, did, again and again— but Satan stopped us.

The Greek word for “stopped” was “used of impeding persons by breaking up the road [as by digging a trench across it], or by placing an obstacle sharply in the path.” [1]

We see that, in the temporal realm, God is not totally in control of all circumstances. But He and His Son are right in there with us, working to help us go over, under, around or through whatever obstacles the Devil puts in our paths. In Acts 14 we read that Paul was stoned, yet through the prayers of the saints the power of God healed him. [2]

God is not a spiritual vending machine, where we just push a button and out pops what we need. Often we must hang in there for quite a while, as Job did, and continue to expect God’s deliverance. In the context of spiritual warfare, it is significant that our heartfelt praise to God is a catalyst to help roll back the forces of darkness (2 Chron. 20:22). [3] No matter what happens, we have the ultimate victory— everlasting life in the age to come.
