WHEN tsotsis broke into his house on 12 August and stole his property, Kgomotso Zitha thought he would never see his items again.
Kgomotso from Rondebult in Ekurhuleni, South Africa said the thugs stole a laptop and two TV sets, so his friend and neighbour, Bhekani Khuzwayo told him about sangoma James Chuma who could help him get his belongings back.
He said: “I visited Chuma the following day who gave me muthi to sprinkle in the yard and the thugs will then bring back my stolen goods. I didn’t believe him but took the muthi and went home where I followed his instructions,” said Kgomotso.
Much to Kgomotso’s surprise, he was returning from a friend’s house on 16 August when he saw two men put his stolen goods near the dining room door.
“I approached them and asked what they’re doing with the goods that looked like mine that were stolen. They confirmed they were the ones who stole my belongings and apologised,” said Kgomotso.
He said he wanted to beat up the two boys, but neighbours told him he should let them go.
When Daily Sun arrived at Kgomotso’s house, the two boys had already left. However, Kgomotso said he didn’t report the matter to the cops when he found out his belongings had been stolen.
“I didn’t go to the cops to report the matter. Instead, I opted to go to the sangoma. All I wanted was to get my goods back and I don’t regret my decision,” he said.
Bhekani said his friend didn’t believe that sangoma Chuma could help him get the stolen goods back.
“He called me to come and see the boys who had stolen his goods, and he wanted to beat them up. I begged him to let the boys go because they apologised,” he said.
Sangoma Chuma said: “I Just did my job to ensure he gets his stuff back. He’s among the clients I’ve helped to get their stolen goods back and I’m glad he didn’t beat up the boys.” (www.snl24.com)
