In her post, she called out Euracare, claiming that the medical centre was denying her the opportunity to mourn in peace.
According to her, she wakes up every day with her heart racing, questioning if what happened is truly real. She explained that it was Euracare that called for an inquest into the death of her son, to confirm or refute allegations of negligence, yet the same hospital is now reportedly seeking to stop the process through a higher court.

Sharing further, the writer noted that an inquest is a public judicial inquiry designed to establish the circumstances surrounding a death. It is not a trial and not a claim for damages, but simply a search for the truth.
She questioned whether the hospital truly cares about the truth, asking why it would create delays, distractions, or attempt to stop an inquest.
She also alleged that someone among the hospital’s owners contacted a relative, stating that they did not want the matter to go to court so her name would not be “dragged in the mud.”
Chimamanda also appreciated those who had reached out to her family and asked for continued prayers, saying that what they are going through is overwhelming.
She further shared a copy of the letter they received from Euracare Hospital in her post.
