That depends on what country in "West Africa" you are talking about. South Africa is a country, whereas West Africa could be defined as anything on the western coast of the continent. However, as an example, the distance between Cape Town in South Africa and Freetown, Sierra Leone, in West Africa is 3,594 miles.

Old name of Namibia?

Namibia used to be known as South West Africa. Being a neighbour of South Africa, and having shared a long history of oppression under the minority white rule of the racist apartheid South African regime, Namibia was known as South West Africa - first, because of its geographic location and secondly because the apartheid regime wanted to incorporate Namibia as the South Western Province of South Africa - making her an intergral part of South Africa. Thus, Namibia remained known as South West Africa till she attained her independence on 21st Of March 1990.
