Nigerian woman’s only child is stabbed to death in LA, cries out to the Public for help to find his killers (photos/video)

A Nigerian woman’s only son was stabbed to death in Northridge, Los Angeles, California and a relative to the woman is claiming that the police is not doing anything about it. ABC news reports 21-year-old Jamal Oladapo, a Birmingham High School graduate and student at L.A. Film School, was found stabbed to death in the underground parking garage of the Merridy Village apartment building.

Jamal who lived at home with his mother, was studying to become a producer and also helped his mother with their family business

A week ago on Sunday, his body was found after he had been stabbed to death. Neighbors said they heard an argument between three men around 1:30 pm. His Mother said she called him several times to find out where he was but he didn’t pick his call. Then on Monday morning, she couldn’t believe what she found at her door: his clothes, headphones, cellphone, house keys and wallet wrapped in his jacket.

After his body was taken for autopsy, the coroner confirmed that Oladapo died from stab wounds to the chest. ABC however reports that the Los Angeles Police Department homicide detectives are investigating the incident.

Kari Jolaoso has now made a public plea, appealing to anyone who can shed light on who stabbed him to death, to reveal details to the police. A relative of the woman who contacted LIB, paid a tribute to late Jamal. It read,
