Celebrity reveals mysterious illness that almost killed him


Mawi has revealed he was once afflicted with a mysterious ailment that saw him stepping out of the limelight.

The celebrity told Berita Harian the incident almost took his life.

“There was a period of two to three years some 10 years ago when I did not sing or act because of this.

“When I suddenly came to my senses, I saw my wife crying while wiping the blood that came out of my mouth. I nearly left the industry completely,” he said.

“I’m just thankful to God for this episode as it really changed me,” he added.
