Pope Leo XIV arrived in Equatorial Guinea on Tuesday in the final stop on his four-nation visit to Africa during which he has repeatedly called for an end to corruption. The Pope is expected to share frank views when he meets with Equatorial Guinea's longstanding leader Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, who has been widely accused of corruption and authoritarianism.
