A middle-aged man in Dandora and who is known as a pastor of a local church has shocked many after returning a stolen phone he had mugged from a female salonist in the morning, just 10 hours ago. He did not sell it because of one reason. Can you guess it? Well, it is not what you think.
The story began today, shortly after 8am, outside a small salon near Phase Two. A young woman was preparing to open her shop when a man snatched her handbag and ran. The street was not too crowded. Most people were busy minding their own business. She screamed. People turned, but the man had already disappeared.
What followed next has left residents in disbelief.
She thought her phone was gone forever
The salonist, known in the area as Cindy, had lost hope. Her phone was new, barely two months old. It held her business contacts, M-Pesa records, client photos and personal memories. She rushed to the police station to report. Like many others, she was told to wait, and maybe the thief would be found one day.
But Cindy was not the type to just sit and wait.
She reached out for help
At midday, she stepped outside, confused and emotional. One of her clients, a woman who had once recovered her husband’s stolen laptop, told her to try another path. She shared a contact number quietly — +254795613711 — and told her to speak only once, then wait.
Cindy hesitated. But she had nothing more to lose.
The call that changed everything
She called. The voice on the other side was calm. She explained what had happened, gave the details of where and when it occurred. The person listened and told her not to worry. Something would happen, and soon.
Four hours later, her phone was back in her hands.
Delivered like a parcel
At around 6pm, a boda rider stopped at the gate of Cindy’s salon. He had a small box wrapped in brown paper. He called out her name. When she stepped out, he handed her the parcel and told her it was paid for in full. No sender information.
Inside the box? Her phone. Untouched. Alongside it was a short handwritten note: “Please forgive me. I do not know what came over me. Bless me and forget me.”
Everyone in the estate was shocked
Word spread fast. Dandora residents came to see the returned phone. No scratches. No SIM removed. Nothing deleted. Even the screen protector was intact. People could not believe it.
“Hii Nairobi imejaa miujiza,” one neighbour joked.
Others were more serious. “Kuna vitu hufanywa kwa roho. Sio kawaida,” said an elderly mama.
The real twist comes later
An hour after the delivery, Cindy received a call. She picked up and heard a shaky voice.
“It is me. The man who took your phone,” he said. “I beg for your forgiveness. I could not sleep. I returned it through a rider. I used my own money. I just need you to bless me. Please.”
Cindy was speechless. She did not know what to say. A thief, asking for blessings?
Dandora residents suspect spiritual intervention
Neighbours believe this is not an ordinary incident. They suspect something invisible chased the man into shame.
“He is known to us. He is not a bad man, but he changed recently. Maybe he was tempted. But the way he returned that phone — it is not normal,” said a neighbour.
Whispers began to fly around.
The Shaba Mangube connection
Several people who gathered at Cindy’s shop began sharing similar stories. They knew others who had recovered stolen items in strange ways — shoes, money, phones, even lost goats.
And in most of those stories, there was one common link — they had all dialed +254795613711.
The number belongs to Shaba Mangube Doctors. They are not your usual spiritual guides. They specialise in helping people who have lost items, been conned, or robbed, and the law has done nothing. Their method? Silent, powerful and effective.
Why the thief gave up
The man later admitted to a close friend that after stealing the phone, he began hearing voices. He tried to turn it off but it kept vibrating. He switched sim cards, but the phone would ring loudly with strange tones. At some point, it refused to power down.
He returned home and found his church robe torn. His bible open on the floor. He panicked. He felt heat on his hands. He knew something was wrong.
That’s when he wrapped the phone and paid a boda rider to take it back. He wanted nothing more to do with it.
Spiritual justice is not loud
In today’s world, many people feel frustrated when law enforcement fails. They report cases, queue for OB numbers, but hear nothing after weeks or months. That’s why more victims are seeking alternative justice.
Spiritual justice does not require mobs. It does not need police chases. It works quietly. The thief returns what he took — sometimes in fear, sometimes in shame.
More cases being reported
A few streets away in Dandora Phase Four, a lady recently got back her lost laptop in a locked bag left outside her gate. Another boda rider delivered it. No note. Just the item, clean and untouched.
When asked how she did it, she whispered, “I called that number. It is all I will say.”
Shaba Mangube methods remain private
The specialists do not speak much. They let their results speak. No posters, no loud marketing. Just a number passed hand-to-hand among market women, small traders, mechanics and even teachers.
If you’ve been robbed, and you feel like giving up, you can try them. The number is simple:
Final thoughts
What happened in Dandora today is proof that not every thief wins. Some are chased by forces they don’t understand. Others wake up with guilt so heavy, they would rather return what they stole than risk what follows.
The woman who got her phone back is still in shock. But she is also happy. She believes something bigger than police helped her. Something silent but sure.
And as the sun set in Dandora, people continued whispering. Not just about the phone, but about the number.
