Kenya Reinsurance Corporation (Kenya Re) has been flagged for continuing to pay managing director Hillary Wachinga his full salary during a suspension period, in what the Auditor-General says breached public service rules.

Dr Wachinga was suspended for two months – from September 2 to November 2, 2025 – alongside human resource manager Sally Waigumo to pave the way for what the board termed as “review of internal matters.” Both were later reinstated.
