'We need peace': South Sudanese wait to see the Pope

STORY: At the St. Therese Cathedral, crowds gathered on Saturday (February 4) morning eager for a glimpse of the pontiff.

Juba resident Joyce Severino Wani said the "family of South Sudan" was "very happy", while another local, Paul, said the country is "bleeding daily" so we "need peace".

Francis arrived will meet displaced people later on Saturday and will celebrate Mass on Sunday (February 5) before returning to Rome.
