    As a general rule I don't hate shoving over with 88 when you have 10x BB left, but I'd prefer not to shove over a tight opp raising from UTG+1 when we have no fold equity.

    I think you are not ahead of his range and you have little FE with 10BB's against a 4BB range.
    I think it's an (easy) fold.
    I am just another learning player, so read my comments (very) open minded.

    If original raiser was in late position and I had reads that they could raise wide, I like shoving. Here you could be in bad shape and your definetly not going to get the original raiser to fold.

    With your read and his position I think it is a fold
