Pope Francis | He was accessible to all: Bishop Malusi Mpumlwana
World leaders have reacted to the death of Pope Francis. The pontiff’s passing has been described by some as a “big loss to the Catholic faithful and Christian World”. He has been praised for his compassion for the poor and his “strong ethical and moral convictions”. Francis, 88, had suffered a serious bout of double pneumonia this year, but his death came as a shock after he had been driven around St. Peter’s Square in an open-air popemobile to greet cheering crowds on Easter Sunday.
