A talented and fast-rising UK-based Nigerian rapper identified as Jordan Gbolade Jaiyeola, has been stabbed to death in a fight after a birthday party at a community centre in east London.

According to Dailymail UK, the teenage schoolboy popularly known as Jordan Douherty, was knifed after a large group of youths were turned away from the party because the venue was at full capacity.

It was later gathered that friends of the deceased were heard screaming and crying, ‘They’ve killed my best friend’, after the boy collapsed around 9pm on Saturday.

A local resident who gave her name only as Ellie said: “There were two or three boys screaming, ‘He’s not moving, he’s dead.’

‘There was a big group on the corner with just the boy on the floor. There were paramedics doing shocks and CPR on him for quite a while. After he was just lying there with a white sheet over him, it was covered in blood.’

Another neighbour, who gave her name only as Carol, said: “It was chaos out here. Around 9.20pm I heard a lot of noise going on. For some reason it didn’t sound right.

“Then I heard a lad crying down the phone ‘he’s dead, he’s dead’. He was laying down in the road, there was a lot of blood.

“The police were working on him, they tried their absolute damnedest with that boy last night. Nobody should die like that.”

Police and paramedics arrived to find up to 200 teenagers running and screaming in panic as the 15-year-old lay in the street in Romford, East London.

According to the police: ” We were called to the centre in Romford on Saturday night after fighting broke out after up to 100 youths mobbed the event. Jordan is the youngest victim to be fatally stabbed in London this year. More than 80 murder investigations have now been launched across London this year alone.”

Three teenage boys have been arrested on suspicion of the murder and have been taken to separate police stations for questioning.
