Adichie communicated her grief and allegations of negligence in a WhatsApp message to family and friends, which was subsequently leaked on social media. "It is like living your worst nightmare," she wrote in the message, which her team confirmed as authentic. Nkanu Nnamdi was one of twin boys born to Adichie and Esege in 2024 via surrogacy, eight years after the birth of their first child, a daughter.

While the specific details of the alleged negligence have not been publicly disclosed, accusations of medical negligence often involve deviations from accepted standards of medical care that directly result in patient harm or death. Such deviations can include errors in diagnosis, treatment, medication, or post-operative care. To prove negligence, legal proceedings typically require demonstrating a breach of duty of care, causation linking the breach to the injury or death, and resulting damages.

Medical experts emphasize the importance of thorough investigation in cases of alleged negligence. "It's crucial to review all medical records, interview involved staff, and analyze the sequence of events to determine if there were any lapses in care that contributed to the adverse outcome," stated Dr. Olufemi Taiwo, a Lagos-based medical law specialist, who is not directly involved in this case. "CCTV footage, if available, can provide valuable insights into the patient's treatment and the actions of medical personnel."

Euracare hospital has not yet issued a public statement regarding the allegations. The legal notice and subsequent investigation are likely to focus on the specifics of Nnamdi's medical care, adherence to established protocols, and whether any preventable errors occurred. The outcome of the investigation could have significant implications for the hospital, potentially leading to legal action, reputational damage, and changes in their medical practices. The case highlights the critical importance of patient safety and accountability within the healthcare system.
