According to the Wiper leader, Karua and her political companions should dissolve the group as it goes against the coalition's agenda.

But in a rebuttal, Karua did not understand why Kalonzo was bothered by the movement and its business.

"What about Kamwene scares my brother Kalonzo Musyoka that he must drag it in every conversation he has?" she posed.

In December last year, the Narc-Kenya party leader mentioned that they are still members of Azimio despite the formation of Kamwene.

"It does not mean we are not in Azimio, if we weren't we would say it without beating around the bush. You saw us speak as Azimio, today we are here speaking as Kamwene, tomorrow I will speak as Narc-Kenya, all these are spaces we occupy," she said.

The movement formed in October 2023, is a platform where Mount Kenya leaders in the opposition address issues affecting the region.

The name Kamwene is derived from a Kikuyu word meaning "the owner".

Its members include Martha Karua, Peter Munya, Jeremiah Kioni, former Laikipia Governor Ndiritu Muriithi and university don Gitile Naituli.
