There is nothing to solve, just wait Oracle makes the clean-up.

It is NOT an error, just an informative message.

ORA-00031: session marked for kill
 *Cause:  The session specified in an ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command
          cannot be killed immediately (because it is rolling back or blocked
          on a network operation), but it has been marked for kill.  This
          means it will be killed as soon as possible after its current
          uninterruptable operation is done.
 *Action: No action is required for the session to be killed, but further
          executions of the ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION command on this session
          may cause the session to be killed sooner.

Regards
Michel

Please read & follow Posting Guidelines as stated in URL above

in some/many/most cases, oracle will not clean out session until after OS process is terminated.
