A group of retired Standard Chartered Bank of Kenya (SCBK) employees, locked in a multi-billion-shilling pension dispute with the lender are facing a new hurdle after the law firm that represented them at the initial stages of the dispute moved to court, seeking to enforce a pay deal they signed in 2005.

In an application to be heard later next week, Oseko & Ouma Advocates LLP is seeking to enforce the retainer agreement signed by the 629 former employees signed with the law firm on August 12, 2005 regarding the fees to be paid.
