"Mazeedat Adeoye drowned after falling headfirst into a bin while she was playing alone on January 29, 2022. A coroner has now blasted Newham Council, accusing the authority and those caring for Mazeedat on the day she died of gross failure."
"Balikis Adeoye, a single mother from Nigeria who had only lived in the UK for 10 months, had no local relatives or support network while Covid restrictions meant two-year-old Mazeedat was not allowed to stay with her in hospital."
"Despite significant efforts, Mazeedat's mother had been unable to secure state assistance for childcare, indicating a systemic failure in local social services to meet the needs of vulnerable families during crises."
