Narc-K Party Leader Hon Martha Karua addressed ongoing speculations regarding the financial backing of the newly-formed Kamwene Unity Forum. The political platform, which has been established to champion the interests of the Mt Kenya region, has been at the center of controversy following claims that former President Uhuru Kenyatta is its primary financier.
During an exclusive interview with the Weekly Review, Hon Karua firmly dismissed the allegations that the former president is bankrolling the initiative. She expressed her disappointment with the Kenya Kwanza camp’s persistent association of Mr. Kenyatta with the Kamwene Unity Forum’s activities. “It is regrettable that every political discourse seems to unnecessarily drag in the name of Uhuru Kenyatta,” stated the Iron Lady, emphasizing the independence of their political movement.

Despite the controversies, the forum is gaining traction among the residents of Mt Kenya, who feel disillusioned with the current government’s promises made during the run-up to the 2022 general election. The sentiment on the ground suggests a growing support for the political direction steered by Jeremiah Kioni and Martha Karua, as they prepare for the upcoming 2027 general election.
