Authorities and loved ones are appealing for public assistance in finding Okuhle Vonco, a 31-year-old man from Khayelitsha, Cape Town, who has been reported missing under concerning circumstances.

According to the family, Vonco was last known to be employed as a candidate civil engineer with the Department of Human Settlements in the Western Cape. When relatives visited his former workplace to seek information, they were informed that his contract had ended and there was no further record of his whereabouts.

Relatives say Vonco has occasionally withdrawn from social media in the past, but never for this duration. His disappearance has raised alarm among friends and family, especially since his mother passed away in late 2023 — an event that, according to loved ones, deeply affected him.

It has also emerged that Vonco is a father to a one-year-and-five-month-old daughter. The child’s mother told the family she last had contact with him when she was five months pregnant.
