Just days after rumours broke online that a hospital allegedly owned by the Social Health Authority (SHA) chairperson, Abdi Mohammed, had received Ksh66 million in SHA payments, the hospital has clarified its ownership.
While confirming that the SHA Chair once owned shares in the hospital, the Pangani-based Ladnan Hospital clarified that he had sold his shares in 2023, long before SHA was implemented.
In a statement, Metro Group PLC relayed that it now fully owns the hospital and that it operates as a subsidiary of Metropolitan Hospital Holdings Limited. "The Metro Group PLC (TMG) issues this statement to clarify recent reports regarding the ownership of Ladnan Hospital Limited (Pangani, Nairobi)," the statement read in part.
