Sierra Leone celebrates being Ebola free

There have been big celebrations in Sierra Leone in West Africa to mark the end of the Ebola outbreak.

Some people lit candles, others danced with joy.

More than four thousand people have died because of the virus over the past 18 months.

But there's been 42 days without any new cases.

An official announcement is expected from the World Health Organisation tomorrow.

BBC reporter Tulip Mazumdar joined in the celebrations.
