Former employees of Absa Kenya have lost a bid to move to the Supreme Court to challenge the reversal of a Sh300 million exit package following their retrenchment 10 years ago.

A bench of five judges of the Supreme Court dismissed the case by the 105 former employees, saying there was no issue of constitutional controversy, which was argued before both the High Court and Court of Appeal, requiring interpretation of the apex court.
