Your options are very limited...
Here are the Apple support pages that outline the Activation Lock - and the only mechanisms by which it can be turned off:
Activation Lock for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Turn off Activation Lock – Apple Support
As you will discover, unless you are the owner of the AppleID that was last used to activate the device, or unless you can secure the cooperation of the previous owner, you’ll not be able to defeat or bypass the Activation Lock. Without documentary evidence that you are the original owner (such as sales receipt showing the serial number), Apple won’t assist - and nobody here will be able to help you.

Without the Apple ID and Password of the original owner, you will never be able to use the device. Activation Lock is a theft prevention feature. If you cannot contact the original owner, there is nothing you can do but recycle the device. Next time buy from Apple or an authorized dealer. Apple sells refurbished devices on its website for reduced prices.

Then this is a dead, useless device to you.
If you can, attempt to return this device and get your money back!
Failing that, please recycle this device responsibly.
You will never get this iPad to ever work for you.
Sorry.
