Cabinet Secretary for Devolution and Planning, Mwangi Kiunjuri has come out to deny rumors that he is the father to the 14-year-old form one student who is believed to have started a fire that killed 10 students at Moi Girls High School in Early September.
According to Kiunjuri, there have been rumors that he could actually be the girl’s biological father. The CS took to his official Facebook page to denounce the rumors terming them as ‘totally false, ill-intentioned and hurtful’
Read his post below.
I have been aware of this totally false, ill-intentioned and hurtful rumour that the girl who is alleged to have burnt the Moi Girls domitory is my daughter. She is not.
I have never had a daughter in that school. It is cruel to the families that lost loved ones to create these kinds of unfounded rumours when their wounds are still this raw. It is hurtful too for the family whose daughter is now being called my daughter.
Let it be known that she’s not my daughter.
The cowardly anonymous originator of this rumour should apologise to the affected families and desist from publishing this or any other unfounded malicious stories.
May the girls who lost their lives rest in perfect peace.
