Description
In the Democratic Republic of Congo, theologians say they would be "happy" if the new pope elected during the conclave to succeed Pope Francis, who died on 21 May, were to come from among the African candidates. However, "Africans are not demanding or seeking to claim a pope because this is a call, a divine call," says professor and priest Sylvain Badibanga. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
