A trove of secret and sensitive data of significant shareholders in registered firms like national ID, residential address and telephone numbers are on sale online after a data breach at the State-owned Business Registration Services (BRS).
The cyberattack and theft of the data is said to have occurred on the night of Friday, January 31, with personal data pushed on the dark web.
Some of the leaked files were being auctioned on a site known as b2bhint.com, with authoritative sources sayingsome sellers have data on Kenyan companies dating all the way back to 1967.
In the data leak, a magnitude of wikipedia leaks, the website created by hackers has allowed access to all companies data displaying data from Year of registration, company registration number, Directors and Shareholders list and links to all companies related to the Shareholders and Directors.
This is a pandora box that has exposed Jayesh Saini who has been linked to over 30 companies directly, some through proxies where you find two secretaries Lenah Chelangat and Angeline Akello Otieno of his companies are secretaries to over 20 companies of which some of the companies where Jayesh is not directly registered, the secretaries are registered or Adil Khawaja is registered or his PA Mishant Mishra is registered. Presence of all these indiviuals validates indirect presence of Jayesh Saini and so is President William Ruto in some.
Why President William Ruto implicated?
It is evident that since the JKIA-Adani deal that Jayesh Saini brokered, SHA- 104billion deal which he(Jayesh Saini) owned Apiero ltd, Government spyware deal that went south which Jayesh was to finance—all involved President William Ruto who is well known for his appetite for such mouth-watering deals.
The cyberattack comes weeks after the lapse of the December 1 deadline that required registered companies to disclose the names, phone numbers and residential addresses of owners who control more than 10 percent stakes through secret accounts to BRS.
The details required for filing included names of the substantial shareholder, KRA PIN, National ID or passport copies, postal address, residential address, occupation, telephone number and the date when the investor became a beneficial owner.
Yesterday, BRS– the sole custodian of a list of all companies and shareholder information— said it was reviewing the extent of the breach.
“Our cyber security experts are working closely with our cyber security partner, law enforcement and investigative agencies to assess the scope of the incident,” said BRS Director-General Kenneth Gathuma in a statement.

Who is Jayesh Saini
Jayesh Umesh Saini is a key player in Kenya’s healthcare industry, having founded over 50 institutions, including Lifecare Hospitals and Bliss Healthcare. His contributions have significantly shaped healthcare accessibility in the country, but his career has also been clouded by multiple allegations of corruption and unethical practices.
In 2012, Saini was implicated in the Clinix Scandal, where his company, Clinix Healthcare, was accused of fraudulently receiving KES 91.3 million from the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) for clinics that did not exist. This led to parliamentary investigations and public scrutiny.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Dinlas Pharma, a company linked to Saini, was involved in the controversial importation of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine. The approval and distribution process raised significant concerns, leading to public outcry over the transparency of the operation.
More recently, Saini has been associated with the SHA/SHIF scandal, where he allegedly played a role in the abrupt transition of NHIF into the Social Health Authority (SHA). Working closely with Adil Khawaja of Safaricom, the duo reportedly introduced the Sh104 billion Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF) system, which collapsed almost immediately upon its announcement.
Despite his influence in the healthcare sector, Saini’s career remains entangled in allegations of financial misconduct and regulatory controversies.
