KASMAG Motors CEO, AbdulGaniy Omoola, Dies In Cairo
The Kwara State transportation sector has been thrown into mourning following the death of Alhaji AbdulGaniyu Omoola, the CEO of KASMAG Motors.
He was 74 years old and would have celebrated his 75th birthday on December 1, 2026.
Alhaji Omoola, who was the Chairman of Association of Independent Transporters (AIT), Kwara State chapter, passed away in Cairo, Egypt, on Saturday.
Sources told Team@orientactualmags.com that he was initially flown to India for medical attention after feeling unwell, before being transferred to Cairo, where he ultimately breathed his last. Reports indicated that his health complications arose from a diabetic trigger following the use of an electric massager.
Known as a well-connected and highly influential figure, Alhaji Omoola rose from humble beginnings. Upon moving to Ikorodu, Lagos State early in life, he worked as a car wash attendant, bus conductor, block maker, and local land agent (omo onile) before achieving his business breakthrough.
While he spent his childhood near Igbaja in Ifelodun Local Government, Kwara State, he identified as a native of the Ikokoro area of Ilorin, where he had recently completed a new ‘family house’.
The late Alhaji AbdulGaniyu Omoola was widely regarded as a powerful individual who maintained extensive high-level relationships within the law enforcement community, knowing and interacting with every Inspector General of Police since he became a successful businessman.
It was gathered that arrangements are underway to transport his remains back to Nigeria for his Janazah (Islamic funeral rites)-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
