A Samburu teacher has warmed hearts across Kenya after photographs showed him cradling a young mother's baby outside an examination room so she could sit her KCSE papers without distraction.
Francis Lesilampa, a trained secondary school teacher, was serving as a Kenya National Examinations Council invigilator at Morijo Secondary School when he noticed the candidate's predicament.
Rather than leave her to manage on her own, he took the infant into his arms, allowing her to walk into the exam room and concentrate fully on her papers.
