A picture of Pope Francis is displayed inside Buenos Aires' Metropolitan Cathedral, Argentina, during a Mass, after his death was announced by the Vatican on April 21, 2025.
The head of the Episcopal Conference of Angola and Sao Tome and Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Saurimo, José Manuel Imbamba, has mourned Pope Francis, saying he was a good shepherd.
Archbishop Imbamba, who spoke to state-owned television TPA Notícias, described the Pope as one who “knew how to interpret evangelical values and who embraced poverty as a way for his missionary work.”
