Smoking na sin?

Yes.
1 Corinthians 3:17
“If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.”

Welldone Pope

And leader that cares about his people.
Over here people smoke freely along the road and noone stops them

He is supposedly a spiritual leader who should call out smokers for the sin that smoking is except that he obviously does not see it as one.

Proverbs 31:4-7

“It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine;
nor for princes strong drink:
Lest they drink, and forget the law,
and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish,
and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.
Let him drink, and forget his poverty,
and remember his misery no more.“

However, as in all things God gives humans the freedom of choice. That freedom, Not unexpectedly, comes with a duty to be accountable when death, the inevitable end of all humans calls. At that point all contention as to whether it is a sin to drink automatically ceases.

the sin is not to drink it is to be drunk
kings are not to be drunk so as not to impair their reasoning
someone that drinks a glass per week does not have impaired judgement
