The Coryndon Museum is very much in existance.   It became the National Museums of Kenya.  They have a web-site:  http://www.museums.or.ke. 
There are many departments and a large exhibition area.  In terms of access to specimens and collections you need to make contacts with the staff.  The main e-mail address for all staff are: nmk at museums.or.ke
In terms of the request, there is a very large insect collection and staff including collection managers and curators!
