"My brother left behind six children. He already had two kids with his first wife and also has four children with his current wife. He has left behind six children in the care of the family and this has become a burden on us."

Sylvester spoke about how his brother had mainly taken an interest in football and was an ardent fan of Kotoko.

"He loved Kotoko to the extent that he would gladly stop eating his meal to support Kotoko. What could be the cause for my brother to be killed at Nsoatre?"

He appealed to the GFA and Kotoko to play a lead role in ensuring the perpetrators of the crime were captured so the motive of the perpetrators could be made known.

"We appeal to the GFA and Kotoko to help us get justice. What wrong did my brother do to the people of Nsoatreman?"
