00:00Nigerian best-selling author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie accused the Lagos Hospital on Saturday
00:06of obstructing an inquest into the death of her 21-month-old son Nkanu,
00:11who died in January after undergoing diagnostic tests at Eurocare Multispecialist Hospital.
00:18In a public statement, Adichie alleged the hospital had used delaying tactics to stall Corona's inquiry,
00:25which was due to begin in April.
00:27She said Eurocare had initially requested the inquest, but later sought to block it through the courts.

00:38alleging excessive sedation and failure to provide adequate oxygen during an MRI procedure.
00:44She also questioned the cause of death listed on her son's death certificate.
00:49Eurocare has previously denied wrongdoing and says its treatment met international standards.
00:55The hospital has not yet responded to the latest allegations.
00:59Now, the hospital has obtained information,
01:01Again, this woman has everything.
