Safaricom has appointed Linda Mesa Wambani as the new Safaricom Company Secretary, effective October 1, 2023.

This is following the resignation of Kathryne Maundu.

However, the board says that Wambani’s appointment is subject to regulatory approval.

With over 19 years of experience in the legal field, Wambani is the current Senior Legal Counsel at Safaricom, where she provides legal and corporate governance support.

She worked as a business and litigation attorney at Dentons Hamilton Harrison & Mathews prior to Safaricom.

She earned a Master of Business Administration in Strategic Management from the USIU as well as a Bachelor of Law from the University of Nairobi.

Maundu, on the other hand, departs the role after more than seven years.

“The Board takes this opportunity to thank Kathryne for her dedicated work, sound advice and commitment to Safaricom over the years, and wishes her the very best for the future,” Safaricom said.
