The National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) has suspended the CEO recruitment process that was ongoing.
The acting CEO Samson Kuhora said in a statement that the board was not confident with the outcome from the ongoing recruitment and had to suspend it for a while.
Kuhora further noted that the outcomes would not align with the fund’s vision of transformative leadership.
“Consequently, the board unanimously resolved to terminate the ongoing recruitment and will initiate a fresh process,” Kuhora said.
“The re-advertisement for the vacant positions of CEO and six directors will be published on June 27, 2023,” he added.
NHIF began the recruitment process early May, the shortlisting was done and was set to announce a new CEO end last month.

The fund was seeking to fill the position of CEO and six directors to the fund.
NHIF appointed Kuhora as acting CEO with effect from March 14 after the term of the former CEO Peter Kamunyo ended in April.
Kuhora is the current head of benefits designs and claims management at the national insurer.
