Pope Francis Refuses to Ride in Bullet Proof Popemobile says at his age he doesnt have much to lose”

Pope-popemobile Bella Naija
Pope Francis is causing quite a stir for his refusal to ride in bullet-proof Popemobiles during public appearances.
The 77-year-old pontiff says he detests being restricted in a “sardine can” because it prevents him from interacting with regular people, The Telegraph reports.
Speaking on the concerns expressed for his safety, he said:
“It’s true that anything could happen, but let’s face it, at my age I don’t have much to lose. I know what could happen, but it is in God’s hands…
I remember in Brazil, they’d provided for me an enclosed Popemobile, but I cannot greet the people and tell them I love them inside a sardine can, even if it is made of glass. For me it is a wall.”
The Pope has opted to use open-top cars in contrast to his predecessor, Benedict XVI, who rode in a bullet-proof Popemobile – a measure implemented after the attempted assassination of John Paul II in St Peter’s Square in 1981.

I think I’m blessed to have the body I have, and [plastic surgery] has just become something that’s fun and cool. My husband he doesn’t have any qualms with it. It was something we talked about even before we got married, because I was like, ‘We’re not going to get married if you’re going to give me shit about my surgeries!’ He was like, ‘Oh, I know that’s part of you, it’s totally fine.’ Actually, he tells me that my plastic su
