The boss of the Music Copyright Society of Kenya (MCSK), Ezekiel Mutua, found himself in a situation where he had no choice but to show gratitude to a kind stranger who offered to return his mistakenly sent money.
According to Mr Mutua, he inadvertently sent Sh5K to the wrong number and attempted to reverse the transaction immediately.
However, to his surprise, he received a message expressing gratitude for the money he had sent.

He added that the message conveyed that the recipient was in dire straits and had fervently prayed for a miracle.
"I told them that I had sent them the money by mistake and asked that they reverse the transaction," Ezekiel Mutua wrote.
Mutua continued by explaining that they successfully reversed the money, and he even went a step further by topping up the amount and sending it back to the recipient.
He emphasized that this act demonstrated their integrity, as they chose to refund the money rather than engaging in any dishonest or fraudulent activity.
He concluded by reflecting on the situation, stating that the initial amount was sent by mistake, but the subsequent act of refunding the money was nothing short of a miracle. This experience reinforced his belief that integrity pays off.
