Chief Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has spoken publicly for the first time following the death of her 21-month-old son, Kanu Nnamdi, earlier this year.

Chief Chimamanda and her husband, Dr Ivara Esege, lost one of their twin sons on 7 January 2026 at Euracare Hospital in Lagos.

The family alleges Kanu died during medical procedures and has raised concerns about possible medical negligence, including the use of sedation and oxygen management. The hospital denies any wrongdoing.

The case is now the subject of regulatory scrutiny and a coroner’s inquest. Reports indicate that some medical personnel have been placed under interim disciplinary measures while investigations continue.

In her statement, Chief Chimamanda described her family’s grief and accused the hospital of attempting to delay or obstruct the coroner’s inquest.

She also renewed her call for justice and accountability as the legal and medical processes continue.

The full circumstances surrounding Kanu’s death remain under investigation, with the findings of the inquest and regulatory reviews expected to determine what happened.

This is possibly the saddest thing I've seen in a long time..an immigrant nurse talking about fleeing her home..she saved her UNIFORM. So she could still WORK for our communities.

I'd fill this country with a thousand of this woman than one of those good for nothing thugs.
God help this poor woman.

@I_amMukhtar They were knocking on doors and asking people where the ethnic minorities live, and the neighbours were telling the rioters. With neighbours like that who needs enemies.

Thinking of the Black people in Belfast who now have no homes to return to because racists have smashed their windows and set everything on fire simply because they are Black

It is easier to be (rightly) outraged by poorer Nigerians begging for money from terrorists and kidnappers online, than it is to be outraged by nicely dressed middle class Nigerians, professionals, journalists, writers, and others who routinely take money from politicians who have open and verifiable records of being rapists, murderers, and thieves whose corruption directly leads to more deaths than any bandit could manage to kill. At least these poor(er) people online are just beggars. The well dressed ones don’t just take the money of murderous politicians who terrorise millions, they also actively whitewash and sell them as fit for public office.

Like I wrote in an article here a while ago, a Nigerian will tweet about how much of a disgrace and eyesore Nigerians begging at the airport and on the streets is, while on their way to do executive begging in offices and homes. In the end, the only real crime in Nigeria is poverty. Whatever crime you choose to do, just try to have money and success and you will be fine. Because if you are poor even the people you try to be good to will spit on you because you represent everything they hate and fear — that peculiarly dehumanising Nigerian poverty.

Nigerian Immigration Officer: Where are you flying from?

Me: Nairobi

NIO: What did you go there for?

Me: A conference.

NIO: What do you do?

Me: I’m a researcher.

NAO: So what do you study?

Me: Corruption.

This is awful. The last ever Denby Pottery going to the kiln. Why is there not uproar? Where’s the government in this?? We all have Denby in our homes, in family heirlooms, as our history and now it’s closing through lack of support, such a sad sad day. #SaveDenby @denbypottery

Black women on Depo Provera for more than a year, please be aware of the risk of cancer and brain tumours! This UK lawsuit is happening in tandem with a US lawsuit and many Black women use this contraceptive.

Tell a Black woman!

Nigeria marked Children’s Day with nearly 90 children, many of them toddlers, still in captivity.

Protesters sleeping under the rain to give people a glimpse of what the abducted children and teachers may be going through in captivity. 💔💔

According to one of the protesters, the victims have been away from their families for days, and there are fears that some of them may not even be getting enough food to eat.

The demonstration was meant to draw attention to their suffering and renew calls for urgent action to secure their release.

As parents and loved ones continue to wait in pain and uncertainty, many are praying for the safe return of every child and teacher still being held captive. 😭🙏🏽💔

This one shook me to my core 💔
Nigeria has many ways of failing its people… and this is one of the cruelest.

Meet Gospel Uabari Kinanee. In 2007, he was just 14 years old. He left home to play football with friends and never came back.

For months, his family turned Rivers State upside down. Hospitals, police stations, morgues — they checked everywhere. No Gospel.

The search broke them. His parents sold their land, their property, everything they had to find their son. The pain and stress was too much. Eventually, both of them died from heartbreak 💔

The world assumed Gospel was dead too. Years passed. 18 long years.

Then in 2025, out of nowhere, his older brother got a call: “We found your brother. He’s in a correctional facility in Rivers State.”

For 18 years, Gospel had been locked up. A 14-year-old boy who went out to play.

When they asked for his case file, there was nothing. No charges. No court record. No reason for his arrest. Just a child… forgotten behind bars.

The worst part? Gospel lost himself in there. His mind couldn’t carry the weight. He doesn’t recognize his brother. He can’t explain how he ended up in prison. The boy who left home to play ball is now a man who can’t remember his own story 😢

How does a child disappear into the system for 18 years without a case?
How many more “Gospels” are wasting away in prison right now for nothing?

This is not just his story. This is a wake-up call for all of us.

Nigeria, how do we fix this? How many innocent lives are we still losing to silence and broken systems? Talk to me

Elections are next year. At least do oju aye and rescue the kids so you can use it to campaign. Do something.
