However, his younger brother, Ato Turkson who broke the sad news of his death said the family is disappointed and worried about reports that his brother died from diabetes.
“Of course I have seen some media reports saying he died because of diabetes. The truth is that no one knows until you have done an autopsy to ascertain the true cause of death,” he said.
“Of course he was diabetic but he was managing it, so for someone to say he died from diabetes I believe is a wrong statement. Let’s all wait for the autopsy report so we can know what exactly caused his death,” Ato Turkson said.
