Kelyan Bossaka's family is devastated and outraged after discovering a rap song that glorifies his murder. The 14-year-old boy was stabbed to death on a bus in Woolwich, London, and his family is struggling to come to terms with the tragedy. Police are currently investigating the case, but no arrests have been made yet. Kelyan's mother, Mary Bokassa, spoke to Metro earlier this week and shared how her son had been groomed and taken advantage of at a young age, leading him to get involved with gangs.
As if dealing with the loss of her only child wasn't enough, Mary and her family are now faced with the pain of seeing rap lyrics that boast about Kelyan's murder being shared online. The lyrics refer to Kelyan by his rap name, Grippa, and describe him being caught off guard on the 472 bus. The family friend, Jacques Tizie, spoke on behalf of Mary and expressed their disgust and shock at the lyrics. He also pleaded for the killer to come forward and for more measures to be taken to prevent gang violence.
Jacques also revealed that the family has had little information from the police and are struggling to understand why Kelyan was targeted. He described Kelyan as a kind and caring young boy with a good heart, but he was influenced by outside forces. Kelyan had dreams of becoming a chef and was passionate about football. He was trying to get back on track and was doing well in school, but unfortunately, he fell victim to the spiral of violence.
Deputy commander Louise Sargent from the police department expressed her condolences to the victim's family, stating that the crime was horrendous and unimaginable. The police are working tirelessly to identify and arrest those responsible for Kelyan's death. Kelyan's death is another tragic reminder of the ongoing gang violence and postcode wars in Woolwich. Just two weeks before his own death, Kelyan had paid tribute to a friend who was also stabbed to death in the same area.
Mary and her family are struggling to cope with the loss of their beloved son and are calling for more action to be taken to tackle gang violence and get knives off the streets. The community is urged to come forward with any information that can help bring justice for Kelyan and his grieving family. The Agency will continue to provide updates on this developing story.
