In an interview with Joy FM, the deceased's aunt, Ewurama Marfo, expressed frustration, stating that the police owe the family the duty to establish the circumstances that led to Kingsley's disappearance for justice to be served.

The family continues to seek answers and justice for Kingsley Marfo's mysterious drowning, urging the authorities to take action in the investigation.
