- Mary Awino takes over after Peter Vuhyah’s long tenure
- New leadership begins with focus on continuity and member service
IG Sacco has effected a leadership change following the formal handover of office from outgoing Chief Executive Officer CPA Peter Vuhyah to Mary Awino.
The transition took place on Tuesday at the IG Sacco Head Office in Kakamega, marking the end of Vuhyah’s 26-year tenure at the financial institution.
Vuhyah formally handed over the instruments of office to Awino, who previously served as the Sacco’s Finance Manager.
The change in leadership ushers in a new chapter for IG Sacco as Awino assumes responsibility for steering the institution’s operations and development agenda.
Speaking during the handover ceremony, both Vuhyah and Awino expressed confidence in the Sacco’s continued growth, while emphasising the need for sustained commitment to its members and institutional objectives.
Vuhyah’s departure marks the end of more than two decades of service at the Sacco, during which he served in various capacities before rising to the position of chief executive.
