Hi, unlinking accounts is currently only possible for Game Advisors. Please contact one of them via live chat or phone at https://help.ea.com/contact-us for further assistance.
Also on a general note, you should not create a new account, all your game entitlements are tied to your account and by simply changing to a new account you might lose access to all your previous games. If the email address for your account is no longer in use, you can get it changed to a new one by contacting a Game Advisor.
In this case I would strongly suggest to get the email address of your old account changed to a new one, instead of continue playing with the newly created Origin account.

Kevin you can connect more than one Xbox live gamertag to your origin account, you can simply add your new one and do not have to remove your brother's account.

Linking your Xbox Live account to another Origin account can only be accomplished by a Game Advisor at the moment. Please get in contact with them directly at https://help.ea.com/contact-us and they will be happy to assist you with that.
1 Click on the following link: https://help.ea.com/contact-us
2 Click on the blue button "Contact a Game Advisor"
3 Enter the name of your game or product (or "Origin" for account-related issues) and click "Find Solutions"
4 Select the type of issue and the platform you play on, and click on "Find Solutions" again.
5 Click on the blue button "I still need help" if the FAQ articles do not apply to your situation.
6 Select a contact option. Note that you may get different contact options depending on your country or time of day.

Are you sure of that?
Official Game Advisors usually said only one gamertag could be linked to one Origin account...
What is the truth?

Both are correct (while the quoted words from an advisor are a bit inaccurate) 🙂
Multiple Xbox Live accounts can be linked to the same Origin account, example: Xbox A and Xbox B are both linked with Origin A.
However, the same Xbox Live account can only be linked to one Origin account at a time, example: Xbox A has been linked with Origin A and cannot be linked with Origin B at the same time. Before you can link Xbox A with Origin B, a Game Advisor will have to remove the link between Xbox A and Origin A.
The same applies to PSN accounts.
