The latest state intelligence propaganda is becoming too desperate and too obvious because the whole trick is to create the impression that Kikuyus are being isolated, ignored and humiliated by the emerging opposition formation.
The intention is to make Mt Kenya stop thinking about taxes, collapsing businesses, joblessness, broken promises and economic pain, then push them back into a tribal bunker around a besieged regime.
This is 2013 software trying to run on a 2027 machine, yet the country has moved, the economy has changed and Kenyans are no longer consuming propaganda the same way.
The old script was always built around siege mentality, where a community is told that everyone else hates them, everyone else is planning against them and only the incumbent can protect them.
That game worked in a different season because emotions were raw, fear was useful and propaganda could move without serious public interrogation from citizens who now have more information channels.
Today, the mountain is not angry because of who has or has not been given a seat in some imaginary lineup, but because the regime they were told was theirs became one of the harshest governments they have experienced.
People are not closing shops because of coalition gossip, farmers are not crying because of press statements and young people are not jobless because of who attended which political meeting.
The real question is not whether one tribe has been given every position in every arrangement, but whether Kenyans want another five years of taxation, debt, abductions, police violence, lies and broken public services.
The state knows it cannot sell performance, so it is trying to sell isolation.
The problem is that hunger is not tribal, debt is not tribal, overtaxation is not tribal, unemployment is not tribal and bad governance is not tribal.
You cannot frighten a broke trader with tribal arithmetic when his stock is stuck, his taxes are rising and his customers have no money.
You cannot tell a jobless graduate that his real enemy is an opposition lineup when he has been home for years with a degree and no future.
This latest propaganda is not about protecting Kikuyus.
It is about rescuing a regime that has lost the country.
