An envoy from Libya’s new leaders has asked President Zuma for help in rebuilding the country in the wake of the uprising that ousted Muammar Gaddafi.

Libya’s interim leader says the country won’t turn into an extremist Islamic country, adding a new government of experts will be completed next week.

Libya’s interim rulers have declared the country liberated after an eight-month civil war, launching it into a two-year transition to democracy.
