]]> President Jacob Zuma’s invited his Western Sahara counterpart on a working visit to South Africa.

President Brahim Ghali will be here on Friday.

President Brahim Gali took control of the Saharawi Arab Democratic Republic  after the death last year of President Mohamed Abdelaziz.

South Africa is one of the staunchest supporters SADR who’s occupation by Morocco is regarded as Africa’s last colonial issue.

Western Sahara has moved back into the African spotlight with Morocco seeking admission to the AU.

It quit the continental body’s predecessor when the OAU recognized Western Sahara.

President Jacob Zuma’s expected to reassure Gali that Morocco will not be admitted to the AU until it has kept its promise to give the Saharawi people a referendum on self-determination.
