A teenager has today been locked up for at least 15 years for the gang murder of a 'popular' 17-year-old boy before the 'ride out' was glorified in a drill rap video.
George Makia, 18, was found guilty of his role in the fatal stabbing of Bubacar Jabbie Dukureh who was killed just feet from his home in Walthamstow, east London.
The victim, who was known as Buba, was stabbed in the chest and collapsed on his doorstep in a pool of blood after being attacked by five teenagers on the evening of October 23 2020 in a 'ride out' - a gang trip to another gang's area.
Following an earlier trial, Samuel Bartley, 19, Jamal Dakissaga-Benitez, 19, Alfie Ferguson, 19, and Kaiyan Decordova, 20, were found guilty of murder.
Makia, who was 15 at the time, was not part of their trial because he was taken abroad by his family and only returned to the UK a week before it started.
