The link doesn’t seem to work, perhaps for good reason. This aunt, Zeituni Onyango, died early in 2014. Maybe another aunt. Maybe Zeituni got a letter from Sr in the afterlife and communicated it to the station. Who knows.
Apologies, I should have looked at the posting date.

BOSTON (WHDH/CNN) - Barack Obama’s aunt, Zeituni Onyango, says Donald Trump disrespected her family by questioning the president’s birthplace.
Trump quoted Obama’s grandmother when she claimed to have witnessed Barack Obama’s birth in Kenya, and Onyango says that is not true.
“A naked lie in the name of the Lord,” Onyango said. “That I respect him and I respect his wealth, but I only demand him to respect us.”
Onyango says when she was a girl in Kenya in 1961, she remembers her family receiving a letter from Obama’s father, announcing the president’s birth in Hawaii.
She passed away some time after Raila Odinga paid her a visit.
I think the above still is from the video in which she speaks about 'the letter'
one after another, the article is deleted, here’s one I printed out earlier:
THE ORIGINAL ARTICLE HAS BEEN REMOVED.

Obamas aunt furious Trump questions his birthplace
BOSTON Donald Trump created controversy, questioning whether President Barack Obama was born in this country. Now the Presidents aunt is saying Trump is insulting her family.
He was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, said Zeituni Onyango.
Zeituni Onyango, President Obamas aunt, says shes angry and hurt about Donald Trump questioning the Presidents birthplace by quoting her 88-year-old mother in Kenya, the Presidents Grandmother.
His grandmother is Kenya said he was born in Kenya and she was there and witnessed the birth, said Trump. Three weeks ago when I started I thought he was probably born in this country and now I really have a much bigger doubt.
A naked lie in the name of the Lord, said Onyango. Hes lying.
From her home in South Boston, filled with pictures of her Mother and President Obama, his 58-year-old aunt says Trumps accusations are bringing ridicule to her family back in Kenya. She described the billionaires words as degrading and hurtful.
When you are doing politics you should leave the family aside, said Onyango.
The Presidents aunt says when she was a girl in Kenya in 1961, the Presidents father, her brother, sent the family a letter announcing the birth of his son, the future President. She says the letter came from Hawaii.
My brother was telling my mother how happy he was he had another baby boy on the other side, said Onyango.
She now has strong words for Trump.
I respect his wealth, but I only demand him to respect us, said Onyango.
Onyango says she hopes her message gets to Trump.
And I challenge him. Let him call me and well talk, said Onyango. Let him come and ask me.
Trump said he has people in Hawaii checking President Obamas birth records. Onyango says they wont find anything controversial.
