A few weeks before his demise, former Prime Minister Raila Odinga argued fervently for the discontinuation of the Constituency Development Fund (CDF). He weighed in several times as Parliament scrambbled to find ways to circumvent the law and keep the fund.

Opinion about CDF is mixed, depending on who you ask. There is a good number of people who believe CDF has been a force for good, and as such, the government should find a way to keep it.
