Supporters of Zambia's former president, Frederick Chiluba, were in full song after he was cleared of corruption charges yesterday.

Mr Chiluba was accused of diverting nearly half a million dollars of state cash to furnish an extravagant lifestyle.

But the judge ruled the funds could not be traced to government money.

Mr Chiluba says he's not going to speak for another 2 weeks but what are those in his camp saying?

Emmanuel Mwamba is the spokesman for the former president.

Paul Bakibinga called him up in Lusaka and first asked how Mr Chiluba was after the judgement.
