At first it looks like a cute Twitter picture to cheer us up in these uncertain times.

But as the man sharing the image of his 10-month-old daughter tied to his back during an online meeting was Sierra Leone's education minister, the conversation turned to gender roles.

David Moinina Sengeh said he wanted to set an example for other men.

He told the BBC that it was very rare to see a child on a father's back in his country.

'How I made fathers carry babies on their backs'

Of course, a picture of a woman with a baby on her back would have barely raised an eyebrow, something which the 33-year-old acknowledges.

"Many women do this daily, but it is so normalised that we don't talk about it at all. If it was my wife who did it then this would not have been a viral tweet," he told the BBC's Newsday programme from Sierra Leone's capital, Freetown, where there is a partial lockdown to help prevent the spread of coronavirus.

The education minister was in the kitchen at home feeding Peynina when he started taking part in a Zoom meeting. He noticed that she looked sleepy, so decided to tie her on his back in order to carry on with the meeting.

The All People's Congress (APC) is one of the two major political parties in Sierra Leone, the other being the Sierra Leone People's Party (SLPP). The APC is the main opposition party in Sierra Leone since April 4, 2018 when Julius Maada Bio of the SLPP won the 2018 presidential elections, though it maintains a majority in parliament.

Elections

The APC party was founded in 1960 by a breakaway group from the Sierra Leone People's Party that vehemently opposed elections before independence and instead supported independence before elections. The APC governed the country from 1968 to 1992 and became the ruling party again in 2007 after the party presidential candidate Ernest Bai Koroma won the 2007 presidential election, he contested and won the 2012 elections also.

The APC lost power on 4 April 2018, with its flagbearer Dr. Samura Mathew Wilson Kamara losing the presidential election to Julius Maada Bio.
