In a Facebook post on Friday Mhako was quick to assure his friends, family and fans that he was fit.
“I thank God I am alive and safe. I was avoiding a cyclist with no reflector (5am) who was in the middle of the road and tried to avoid a head-on with oncoming car and veered off the road, hitting a street light and rolling twice. I am safe and sound. Just bruised, neck and chest pains”.
