Pope Leo XIV has condemned the “handful of tyrants” exploiting Earth through war and greed. He delivered a peace message in Bamenda, Cameroon, amid a long-standing separatist conflict. Cameroonians celebrated his visit, hoping it will draw global attention to the violence affecting the region. Leo led a peace meeting with religious leaders, emphasizing the importance of interfaith efforts to end the conflict. He warned against using religion for military and economic gain, calling for a shift away from exploitation. The conflict has deep colonial roots, with thousands killed and displaced. Despite a temporary pause in fighting, peace talks remain stalled.
