Thai doctors recommended a CT scan, but Ubiribo lost consciousness before it could be carried out. Medics determined he had suffered a pulmonary blood clot blockage, a condition in which a blood clot blocks a vessel in the lungs, and he was moved to intensive care. Despite CPR being administered for 100 minutes, he did not survive.

Inquest findings and Davido's tribute
