Son Questions Father's Death After Fifth Penis Enlargement in Thailand
The son of a Nigerian-born British businessman who died after undergoing a fifth penis enlargement procedure in Thailand has raised questions about the circumstances surrounding his father's death.
Igho 'Tiny' Ubiribo, a millionaire influencer, died following a penis enlargement surgery at a clinic in Bangkok. His 21-year-old son, Junior, has stated that the family does not believe the procedure was the cause of his father's death.
"He didn’t have a micropenis - he had nothing to be ashamed of," Junior Ubiribo said, refuting any potential perception that his father underwent the surgeries due to insecurity about his size. The son also noted that no one in the family attributes his death to the surgery.
Ubiribo, who was of Nigerian descent but a British businessman, appeared to lead a lavish lifestyle, frequently showcased on social media. His death has drawn attention to the risks associated with cosmetic surgery tourism, particularly for procedures like penis enlargement.
Details surrounding the specific circumstances of his death, including the exact cause and the timeline of events leading up to it, remain unclear. The incident highlights the potential dangers individuals may face when seeking medical procedures abroad.
Ubiribo's funeral reportedly involved a significant display, with streets brought to a standstill by a cortege of cars and his coffin, which was described as being gold and reportedly worth £500,000, being carried into the service. The elaborate funeral underscored his status as a public figure. Additional information regarding the investigation into his death or further statements from the family is awaited.
