Dr Swarup Mishra lost his job as head of Kenya BioVax Institute when President Ruto suspended him on Friday. The president removed him because of illegal kidney operations at his hospital in Eldoret. His suspension will last until investigators finish looking into what happened at Mediheal Hospital. The government stopped all transplant services at Mediheal Group earlier this week after hearing serious concerns about ethics from both officials and regular people.

Mishra had only worked six months as chairman since Ruto picked him last November. He runs several hospitals with locations in Eldoret, Nairobi, and Nakuru. He previously served as MP for Kesses but lost his seat to Julius Rutto in recent elections. Mishra ran as an Independent candidate against Ruto's allies in an area where the president has strong support. The Health Ministry specifically mentioned kidney transplants when they shut down procedures at their medical facilities.

The wealthy doctor became famous across the Rift Valley for spending money on community projects. Local Kalenjin people liked him, so they gave him the nickname "Kiprop." The president stated that his government will fight corruption, including problems in healthcare. He wants justice for anyone harmed at the hospital.
