Laikipia East MP Mwangi Kiunjuri has once again denied links to a girl who was arrested and charged for starting a fire that killed 10 others at a dormitory in Moi Girls School Nairobi.
In a statement on Sunday, Kiunjuri said none of his daughter or relative pursued her education at Moi Girls School Nairobi.
He went on to describe as 'inseivtive and reckless' individuals sharing information on social media about the 2017 incident.
The MP insisted that these persons were only rekindling the pain of parents who lost their children in the unfortunate incident.
"I wish to make reference to my 2017 statement on the same. Let it be known to all the perpetrators of this reckless, insensitive and inhumane falsehood that I have never had a daughter or a relative at Moi Girls School Nairobi," Kiunjuri said.
"Unfortunately, some reckless individuals have decided to score whatever points by regurgitating this falsehood without any due consideration to the parents and relatives who lost loved ones in the incident and the fresh wounds they may still have."
The Laikipia East MP insisted that the parents of the suspect are well known.
He added that if any of those circulating the information care for the truth, they should visit the school to get their facts rights.
Kiunjuri further noted that if those behind the reports were out to score political points, then they had gone too low.
He added that humanity and morality should have taken the pain of parents who lost their children into consideration.
"This is too low even for purposes of scoring political points," he said.
"My heart goes out to the parents who lost their children in this unfortunate incident and whose scars continue to be opened afresh each time in the name of people politicking."
The girl charged in connection to the fire incident was convicted of manslaughter.
Justice Stella Mutuku said her behaviour portrayed "a child crying for attention".
She said the prosecution did not prove malice aforethought, so she could not convict her of murder as charged.
She was jailed for five years.
