Paul Nsubuga from Mbale had always considered himself a devoted husband. For five years he and his wife, Miriam, had built a small but comfortable life together. They ran a shop side by side and were known in their church for their commitment to family values. Yet, over time, Paul began to notice things that unsettled him. Miriam often excused herself to go to the clinic without explanation, she kept some medication locked away, and she became defensive when asked about her health. At first Paul tried to dismiss his worries, but the feeling that something serious was being hidden from him kept growing stronger.
Like many men in Uganda faced with uncertainty, Paul first tried the usual channels. He talked gently to his wife, he asked for advice from elders in the community, and he prayed for peace of mind. Still, nothing changed. Miriam continued to be secretive about her visits to the health centre and about the pills she kept in her handbag. Paul felt trapped between love for his wife and the need to know the truth for the safety of his family. He did not want a public scandal, but he could no longer live with the doubt.
One evening at a friend’s shop, Paul opened up about his worries to an old classmate who had faced similar issues. The friend told him about a group of experienced traditional counsellors and spiritual advisers known for guiding people through family and health-related problems. According to his friend, many people believe these healers widely referred to as Shaba Mangube Doctors use powerful traditional rituals and spells to reveal hidden matters and give people the courage to confront them. He shared their public contact number, +254795613711, which Paul later also found on social media. What reassured Paul most was that he did not have to travel far; they could guide him even without visiting them physically.
Paul hesitated for several days before calling. He had never reached out to such traditional healers before and he was nervous. But when he finally did, he was surprised at how calmly they listened. They asked respectful questions about his marriage and his fears. Then they explained a series of traditional rituals and prayers which, according to their practice, were meant to bring hidden truths into the open. They also gave him practical advice: keep a record of events, approach the situation calmly, and be prepared to speak openly once facts were clear. For the first time in months Paul felt supported.
Over the next few weeks Paul followed the instructions. He performed the rituals at home as he had been guided, believing they would give him insight and courage. At the same time he observed Miriam’s routines carefully. He also worked on creating a calm environment at home to avoid unnecessary conflict. Little by little, situations unfolded that allowed Paul to gather information he had not had before. He says he began to see “signs” that confirmed his suspicions and gave him strength to ask direct questions.
Eventually, with evidence and a calmer heart, Paul sat down with Miriam in private and explained what he had discovered. Faced with his questions, Miriam admitted that she had been living with HIV since before their marriage and had been taking ARVs in secret out of fear and shame. It was a devastating moment for both of them, but it also brought an end to years of secrecy. They were able to go together to a health centre, get counselling, and learn how to protect their children and each other.
Looking back, Paul says that combining the rituals he was given with the practical guidance helped him face the truth without violence or public embarrassment. Without that support he might have reacted in anger or made the situation worse. Instead he handled it with dignity and was able to make informed choices for his health and his family’s future. Today Paul and Miriam are receiving treatment together and working on rebuilding trust.
Paul encourages other men and women who suspect hidden issues in their relationships not to suffer in silence. “Sometimes you need both spiritual and practical help,” he says. “There are people out there who can listen to you, guide you, and give you the courage to confront the truth.” The contact number he used +254795613711 is publicly shared for those seeking traditional family counselling and spiritual support. Even if you live far away, you can still call and get guidance on how to handle delicate issues.
Across Uganda, traditional healers, counsellors and community elders still play an important role in helping families solve sensitive problems. They are not a replacement for professional medical care or legal action, but they can offer cultural wisdom, rituals and spiritual practices rooted in local traditions. Many couples have used such support to rebuild trust, manage conflict and make difficult decisions without violence or public shame. In a society where talking openly about HIV and other private matters is still taboo, having a confidential space for guidance can be life-changing.
