Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has dismissed Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna's Linda Mwananchi movement as a "passing cloud" during a church service in Baringo. Murkomen expressed sympathy for the movement's supporters and backers, stating that the political outfit had gained momentum but was now losing steam. He directly targeted Sifuna, comparing his political momentum to a "mocking flame" that had faded.
Murkomen questioned the policy agenda of some movement leaders, remarking, "How can the constitution be a policy?" The debate over the political vehicle the movement will use ahead of the 2027 General Election continues, with some leaders preferring the Mwananchi Party backed by Babu Owino, while others advocate for the Ukombozi People's Party backed by Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya.
