Motorbikes disappeared from compounds. Electricity meters were vandalized. No one slept deeply because you never knew when the next scream or alarm would go off.
We had formed small security groups and installed metal gates, but still, thieves seemed to find a way in.
Yet in the middle of all this chaos stood Mr. Maina’s house.Untouched.Unbothered.Unshaken.
While the rest of us reinforced our doors and replaced stolen property, his home remained peaceful.
His gate was not stronger than ours. His walls were not higher. In fact, his compound looked simpler than many houses around. But strangely, thieves skipped his place every single time.

He looked at me calmly and said something that stayed in my mind: “Protection is not always visible.” He did not elaborate further.
Weeks later, violence escalated again. Two houses were set on fire during a dispute between rival groups. The tension in the neighborhood grew heavy.
Families started considering moving away. That was when a small group of us decided to dig deeper. After many conversations, Mr. Maina finally shared his story.
