The son of British-Nigerian businessman and influencer, Igho “Tiny” Ubiribo, has challenged the viral narrative surrounding his father’s death in Thailand, alleging foul play and disputing claims that it was linked to a cosmetic procedure.
In a video shared online, Junior Ubiribo said his father was “killed” in March, and accused people of pushing a false narrative that Igho died from complications after a penis enlargement procedure.
“My dad was killed, and I say killed because although they’re trying to push this narrative that he needed his d*** bigger, that’s not what happened,” he said.
Junior alleged that his father’s body had unexplained injuries, including a missing eyeball and “a giant gash” on his forehead, questioning how such wounds could result from the procedure.
He also accused his father’s wife, whom he said was not legally married to Igho, of withholding information about the incident and of taking his inheritance.
“I had my inheritance stolen by his wife. Just crazy how many properties, guns, watches, just gone to South Africa with the wind,” he alleged.
Junior said the family only learned details surrounding his father’s d£ath through the same reports that circulated online and accused people of trying to “defile” Igho’s name and change the narrative about his life.
The comments come days after a UK coroner’s inquest reportedly found that Igho died from a pulmonary embolism linked to hyaluronic acid filler used during a procedure in Bangkok.
Junior, however, insisted the public account does not tell the full story and called for answers.
“I miss my dad. He didn’t deserve what happened to him, and he doesn’t deserve what’s happening to him now,” he said
