Before Patrick Mbaji (pictured)was diagnosed with TB in 2010, he experienced chest pains and fatigue. When doctors revealed what was ailing him, and that he would need medication for months, some friends had another suggestion: they knew of a sorcerer in Kilifi who could cure him instantly.
He thought about using the herbalist for a while, but his condition worsened compelling him to go to hospital. He however says some friends have not been lucky.
