"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," he said.
The fire broke out on September 2, 2017, when the students were still asleep.
Education Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i confirmed that it was an arson attack and the main suspect arrested.
