Pope Leo XIV Urges End to Corruption During Cameroon Visit, Calls for Transparency
Pope Leo XIV has arrived in Cameroon, where he addressed President Paul Biya and government officials, emphasizing the need to combat corruption in the country. During his speech at the presidential palace, the Pope highlighted the importance of breaking the 'chains of corruption' to restore credibility and justice. This visit comes after Biya's contested re-election, which secured him an eighth term in office. The Pope's visit is part of a broader tour of Africa, focusing on promoting peace and justice. He is scheduled to participate in a 'peace meeting' in Bamenda, a region affected by separatist violence. The Pope's message also included a call for transparency in public finances and the integration of civil society into governance.
