Meet the conclave: Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo
The Congolese cardinal rides motorcycles and wants to go to the moon - if necessary
Fridolin Ambongo Besungu was born on Jan. 24, 1960, just months before the country then known as the Belgian Congo gained its independence after 75 harrowing years of colonial rule.
The following decades would be full of upheavals for the Democratic Republic of the Congo — and, at times, for Ambongo.
