Diplomatic postings
Prior to 1995, Kentaui was the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) ambassador for India for some years.[3] He was then appointed as SADR ambassador for Ethiopia and permanent representative to the Organization for African Unity[4] until 2000, when he was replaced by Mohamed Fadel Ismail Ould Es-Sweyih. That year he was accredited as SADR ambassador for Nigeria,[5] presenting his credentials to Nigerian president Olusegun Obasanjo in 2001.[6] He stayed in that post until 2008, after being elected as Wali (Governor) of the Wilaya of Ausserd, at the Sahrawi refugee camps in Tindouf, Algeria.[7] In January 2012, he replaced Brahim Mojtar as POLISARIO Representative for Sweden.[8]
