The family of late former Zambian President, Edgar Lungu has welcomed the decision by South Africa's Supreme Court of Appeal, granting them leave to appeal a previous High Court ruling that favored the Zambian government's bid to repatriate Lungu's remains for a state funeral.

His remains are in South Africa, following his death in June at a South African hospital.
