A new legal dispute has erupted over the Sh715 billion National Social Security Fund (NSSF) scheme in Kenya, with the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) stating there's no legal basis for the current enhanced contribution deductions.

• The LSK asserts that a September 2022 Employment and Labour Relations Court judgment declaring the NSSF Act, 2013 unconstitutional remains operative.
• Key players include the LSK, Senator Okiya Omtatah, and NSSF officials.
• The controversy centers on the shift from a flat-rate contribution of Sh200 to a phased earnings-based system, with contributions now reaching up to Sh6,480 per worker per month.
