NG-CDF constituency allocations

The National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) is money Parliament sets aside each year for every constituency's own development — classrooms, bursaries, water projects, security posts. This page shows what was approved for each constituency. What was actually released, spent and delivered are separate records from separate sources, and are not shown here.

The 6 payment bands

NG-CDF pays in bands, so a seat's figure is a band and not a placing. 277 of the 290 published seats were paid one of these 6 amounts. Bar length is how many seats sit in the band — not how much money.

KSh 221,505,235 7 seats
KSh 211,874,573 22 seats
KSh 202,243,910 53 seats
KSh 192,613,248 101 seats
KSh 182,982,585 74 seats
KSh 173,351,923 20 seats

The remaining 13 seats each received an amount no other seat did — a band plus a small top-up, between KSh 173,385,923 and KSh 212,063,573.

Across every published seat the largest allocation is 1.28× the smallest — the whole national spread, top to bottom.

These bands are counted across all 290 published seats, not just the Nairobi County rows in the table.
