The Nairobi Hospital has strongly stated that there has been no change in the leadership of its Board. The hospital shall initiate legal and administrative action against a board member who they claim has repeatedly attempted to subvert its governance structures, including disseminating false information, impersonating the office of the chairman, and fabricating records of meetings that never occurred.
They also stated that these actions constitute a serious breach of fiduciary responsibility and corporate ethics and will be pursued to the fullest extent allowed by law to protect the institution’s stability, reputation, and future.
The hospital’s leadership is also reviewing all relevant documentation and interactions by the said individual, and is preparing a formal submission to the relevant regulatory authorities to ensure accountability and prevent further disruption.
“We are not only taking this action to protect The Nairobi Hospital today, but to safeguard its future. Good governance is not optional. The moment we allow personal ambition to override proper process, we expose the institution to reputational damage and mounting legal risks,” said Dr. Barcley Onyambu, the elected Chairman of the Kenya Hospital Association (KHA).
The Hospital is currently grappling with significant legal liabilities, many of which are Hospital in past governance failures mostly due to arbitrary decisions made without due process like the current un-successful attempt by a rogue member, thereby exposing the hospital to serious litigation risks.
These actions have resulted in multiple ongoing legal disputes and financial claims, diverting resources from the hospital’s core mission of delivering quality healthcare.
Contrary to what they called recent misleading reports and statements circulated by the said rogue board member, no valid board meeting has taken place to alter the current leadership structure. The hospital emphasizes that the process of board appointment at The Nairobi Hospital is strictly governed by the Constitution of the Kenya Hospital Association. Board members are elected by KHA members, and the Chairman is thereafter elected by the full board. A Chairman can only be removed by formal board resolution, passed in a duly convened meeting. Dr. Barcley Onyambu remains the Chairman.
The leadership has reaffirmed its commitment to transparency, accountability, and excellence in healthcare governance. The Hospital recently concluded a three-day Corporate Governance retreat in Naivasha, with board members and advisors, reinforcing a shared vision of ethical leadership and institutional renewal.
In conclusion, they urged members of the public and media to treat any unofficial correspondence or declarations not originating from the Office of the Company Secretary with caution, noting that all official communication will be issued through authorized channels.
