My iPad was disabled for almost 2 years now and I only got the chance to restore it now. I successfully restored it already however it needs an Activation Lock. I already forgot the password of the Apple ID I used and even the security questions I put in there. Is there any way I could activate this and input my new Apple ID? Please send help. Thanks!

Use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team, or if you’re the iPad’s original owner, supply Apple with its purchase receipt and ask them to remove the lock.
It's not possible to activate it from a different Apple ID. The activation lock is an anti-theft measure.
