Manga, a man Atieno had just met at a bus stop, suddenly claimed her as his wife and, as the crowd watched, grew increasingly aggressive. Atieno found herself bloodied and bruised, with some women attempting to shield her from Manga's fury.
The police intervened, familiar with Manga's history, and arrested him. Atieno, determined to continue her journey to Mombasa, declined medical help, and a kind fellow traveler offered assistance.
Two weeks later, the shocking encounter lingered in the narrator's thoughts, prompting them to revisit the bus stop to uncover more about Manga's history. It was revealed that Manga was an emotional conman, using sob stories to manipulate people into giving him money.
He had no qualms about resorting to physical violence and blackmail if his tactics failed. His viciousness had earned him a sinister reputation, and he targeted unsuspecting newcomers, ensuring no one would warn the victims. Rumors even circulated that he had committed murder and escaped justice.
