Talks between online taxi-hailing firm Uber and Kenyan drivers have collapsed after the US tech giant introduced a requirement for them to sign an agreement that they say “bars them from seeking arbitration within the borders.”

The document sent out Wednesday morning provides that the relationship between Uber and the drivers will be governed by the laws of the Netherlands and any dispute arising are to be resolved in reference to it.
