GOSPEL star Sipho Makhabane is now out of danger and has regained consciousness after being in a coma for a week.
Swazi Observer reports that the musician also spoke for the first time on Saturday.
Makhabane was involved in car accident in South Africa while driving to a church event on December 28. He had been in a coma for a week after sustaining head injuries.
"Big Fish", as he is popularly known, was admitted into Midlife Midmed Hospital in Middelburg, South Africa. Local gospel musician, Nduduzo Matse, who was mentored by Big Fish said he was present when the gospel music mogul woke up on Saturday in the Intensive Care Unit.
The first person that Makhabane asked for, according to Matse, was bishop Nash Shongwe.
"He shocked us because the first person he asked about was Nash," he disclosed.
Without hesitation, Shongwe was telephoned to notify him of the new developments.
However, he has not yet been released from ICU as doctors are still observing him, and have said they will only release him once he is fully recovered.
