    sessionStorage.removeItem(key)

on same page I set the session, it Clears it but I want to Clear this when the user logs out instead – Augustine Gabriel May 3, 2021 at 19:05

User Session Stored at Server side but sessionStorage is at client side script. add at "you have successfully logged out" page

echo '<script> sessionStorage.removeItem("key")</script>'; 
                I think that it would be more accurate to say that the <script> tag should belong on the "you have successfully logged out" page.  Alternatively, your client-side app could destroy its own SessionStorage key before issuing the logout call to the server.
