The Deputy Governor in Kenya, as the second-highest-ranking official in county government, has a significant role in supporting the Governor and assuming duties in the Governor’s absence or incapacity. Below is the salary structure for a Deputy Governor in Kenya as set by the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC):
| Component | Amount (Ksh) |
|---|---|
| Basic Salary | 372,750 |
| House Allowance | 100,000 |

| Total Monthly Salary | 621,250 |

Deputy Governors are therefore well-compensated for their responsibilities, which include acting as Principal Deputy to the Governor, assuming acting governorship when needed, and potentially stepping into the Governor role under specific circumstances.
