Today there is a stone that is not there. So there are two stones left and you understand why we are moved, why we are in pain because a part of ourselves is not there and we are suffering. That is why we say that this moment is a painful moment. Imam Kobin was a man with integrity, a man who knew how to lead his society, he is a researcher but who had great simplicity, not to say humility.

Cardinal Dieudonné Nzapalainga

Esdras Ndikumana
