The Kenyan government has launched a formal inquiry into the financial affairs and management of Qona Sacco, formerly Safaricom Sacco, following member pressure over financial concerns. The probe, authorized by a gazette notice on September 29, 2025, will investigate the Sacco's by-laws, financial conditions, and the conduct of its management.

• Qona Sacco, with over KES 12 billion in assets, acknowledged a KES 26 million loss provision related to its financial exposure to the struggling Kenya Union of Savings and Credit Co-operatives (KUSCCO).
• The inquiry is led by Assistant Director of Co-operative Audit Silars Okoth Dede, appointed by Commissioner for Co-operative Development David K. Obonyo.
• The formal investigation was triggered by a member vote at a Special General Meeting (SGM) on May 31, 2025, following issues raised at the AGM on March 1, 2025.
