Mohale FM Former Prime Minister, Tom Motsoahae Thabane is reported to be recovering well after spending about a week in hospital.
Speaking in an interview this morning, his son, Potlako Thabane said his father has since been discharged from hospital and returned home, where he is being cared for by his wife, Maesaiah Thabane.
