AND THEN THERE WAS A LOVE TRIANGLE OF SORTS : KOLA BOOK IN MORE DANGER AS SHE REMEETS ANOTHER MAN SHE'D BEEN A MISTRESS TO

A sort of love triangle with Osama Bin Laden and another man, Hasan al-Turabi, the leader of the National Islamic Front,  possibly the most powerful man in the Sudan then, happened.  But at first Kola Boof  (then Naima) didn't know the two men were friendly.  She'd been his mistress in 1995, a year earlier. He had a son Isam who also desired her.

But the one night of romance she had with the son was the end of it.  He expected sexual servitude and had intense energy towards her. She thought this emotion was a mix of lust, racial hate, exotica, ideation, and power-over-a-child syndrome.

Should she tell Osama?

She did. She said she had been at Hasan al Turabi's the prior year.  

He had horribly abused her verbally and had punched her and broken her nose and fractured her rib.  At the hospital the police and nurses found a way to dismiss her complaints because they didn't want trouble for themselves.

But what had ended her relationship with Osama Bin Laden was a fight Naima had with another woman in which she became crazed and stabbed a man.  The fight brought Osama to her side with a present again.  And now she was pregnant with his child. (Page 210)

Osama figured she was in love with Isam.

So he was violent with her later and even wanted her to wear a dog collar and leash so he could parade her around as a sex slave in front of Isam.  He thought this was funny.


A White woman who was assigned to be her maid but was an informant may have been involved in feeding Naima poison so that she miscarried.

Finally Naima told Osama that their relationship was unfair to her.  She didn't like the way he took over her life.  She wanted to go back to America.  And he agreed.  He gave her traveling money and her jewels.
He was ready to replace her with a French girl anyway.
