We will do what it takes to retain CDF, Mps

MPs vows to fight all odds to retain CDF, in an inclusive interview most of them critisized the move by High court.
Most of them including Chair CDF committee rubbished the call and promised to fight it back.

“We will do whatever it takes to make sure CDF is here to stay. We will go to the Court of Appeal; we will push for the amendment of the CDF Act and align it with the Constitution as ordered by court; and we might even amend the Constitution if it comes to that,” said Lessonet.

MPs from the shores of Lake Victoria, the plains of Kajiado, the slopes of Mt Kenya, the escarpments in the Rift Valley, the fertile lands of Kiambu and the arid lands of Northern Kenya criticised the High Court ruling.

They said they would fight in the Judiciary, in the public space and in the Legislature to make sure the fund remained in the statutes of the country. They slammed the judges’ reasoning as “erroneous”, “illegal” and termed it as one peppered with “judicial activism”.
