The board of Directline Assurance has confirmed Sammy Kanyi as the principal officer and the chief executive officer of the insurer of public service vehicles (PSV) after a nine-month stint serving in an acting capacity.

Mr Kanyi’s confirmation comes at a time when the insurer is roiled by shareholder wrangles, which saw the High Court gag businessman Samuel Kamau Macharia from running cautionary adverts.
