The son of late Nigerian-British businessman and social media influencer Igho “Tiny” Ubiribo, popularly known as Tiny Igho, has rejected the reported explanation surrounding his father’s death in Thailand, insisting that there are unanswered questions about what happened.
Tiny Igho, 43, died in Bangkok on March 6, 2026, after undergoing a cosmetic penile filler procedure. A London coroner subsequently linked his death to a pulmonary embolism caused by the hyaluronic acid injection. Thai authorities have also launched an investigation into the clinic where the procedure was performed, including its licensing and compliance with medical standards.
However, speaking in a video circulating online, Tiny Igho’s son disputed the narrative that his father simply died from complications related to the procedure.
“My dad was killed in March. I say he was killed because they are trying to put out a narrative that he needed his penis bigger, but trust me, we are good in that department,” he said.
The son questioned how a cosmetic enlargement procedure could account for injuries he said were found on his father’s body, specifically referring to an alleged missing eyeball and a deep wound on his forehead.
“A penis elongation doesn’t cause you to have a missing eyeball and a giant gash on your forehead.”
He said the family did not have complete information about what happened during the trip to Thailand and expressed frustration that what he described as a false account of his father’s death had gained acceptance.
The allegations come as fresh details about Tiny Igho’s treatment history emerge. Thai health authorities said an investigation into the clinic found that the businessman had reportedly undergone five penile enlargement procedures at the facility between 2024 and 2026. The clinic said the first four procedures took place between 2024 and 2025, while the fifth was performed on March 5, 2026, a day before his death.
According to information provided by the clinic to Thai authorities, Tiny received about 40 millilitres of filler during the final procedure. The clinic also claimed that a doctor had advised him to split the treatment into two sessions, but that he requested to have it done in one session.
The UK coroner’s findings, however, attributed his death to a pulmonary embolism associated with the filler injection. Reports from the inquest said Tiny developed chest pain and collapsed after the procedure while receiving a massage with his wife, Danielle Simba Allen. He was taken to hospital but died despite prolonged attempts to revive him.
Tiny Igho’s son also raised questions about his father’s wife and alleged that she had kept the family in the dark about aspects of what happened in Thailand. He further claimed that a dispute had emerged over his father’s properties and inheritance, alleging that the woman had taken control of some of the assets.
Those claims have not been independently established, and no evidence has publicly emerged confirming the son’s allegation that his father was deliberately killed.
The son said he believed the circumstances surrounding his father’s death deserved greater scrutiny and expressed his grief over losing him.
Meanwhile, Thai authorities are continuing to examine the clinic involved in the procedure. Officials have said the investigation will consider whether the facility was properly licensed and whether appropriate health and safety standards were followed.
The case has therefore taken a new turn following the son’s allegations, with the coroner’s finding on the medical cause of death standing alongside the family’s claims that there are still unanswered questions about the circumstances surrounding Tiny Igho’s final hours.
