Social Media Comes To The Rescue For Former Yotv Presenter In Search Of Missing Dad

Former YoTV child presenter Karabo Ntshweng has praised the power of social media after it played a crucial role in locating her missing father. Ntshweng announced on Thursday that her father had been found alive but in a serious condition and was currently in the hospital.

Her father had gone missing on 20 November, and a missing person flyer with his photo, description, and details of what he was wearing was shared across various social media platforms, including X formerly Twitter. The flyer gained widespread attention, including a re-tweet by Crime Watch host Yusuf Abramjee.

The breakthrough came when a nurse who had been treating Ntshwengs father saw the post and recognized him. She reached out to the family using the contact details on the flyer. Ntshweng expressed her gratitude, thanking everyone for sharing the post, which ultimately helped locate her father.
