Photo: Dad spotted carrying his baby on his back at UK airport

Is this a weird sight or adorable? According to twitter user @GabbyDarko, he sighted this UK-based African father at Heathrow airport carrying his baby on his back with wrapper to board a flight to Ghana. I'm sure it would have freaked all dem white folks out. Lol. What happened to a baby stroller?

Linda, if he had used a stroller, he wouldn't have been able to pull the boxes. Same thing happened to me at Heathrow, I couldn't cope with the stroller, baby bag, hand luggage, shopping at duty free. I ended up folding the stroller and backing my baby to free up my hands.

Linda....obviously you're not a mum yet (no offence). How is he ecpected to push a stroller with 2 boxes? I think its a good idea. Yrs ago, on my way to naija with my daughter, i regretted not taking a wrapper. It was a nightmare as we unfortunately missed our flight. A nice gentleman had to carry my bags for me while i carried my child before I was able to get a trolley.

backing a baby is a good way to carry a child.
linda stop bringing down africans that choose to do things in their own way but encourage it. it allows him to carry other things with out stress. so stop being a racist. if na white person talk am now you go cry foul.

That's how I back my child when travelling by flight. It's the easiest way. How can you push a stroller with all the hand luggages?? Oyinbos are use to it. It's not new!!!

omo ibo said...

The saying, "When you are in Rome, do as the Roman's do". However you will agree more that it is more convenient to do things your natural way. I personally think it's cute. Also the African style supports the Child's neck, spine, hips and legs properly. We can argue that the Oyibo's style (child facing parent) ensures eye contact. But abeg we musnt lose yet another unique practice of ours bikonu!!
