2020-12-03 | Politician named after Adolf Hitler wins election in Namibia

"He probably didn't understand what Adolf Hitler stood for,' his namesake said. 'As a child I saw it as a totally normal name."

'• Adolf Hitler Uunona was elected with 85 per cent of the vote in a regional poll\n• He said his father had named him Hitler without realising what the name meant\n• Former German colony in Africa still has a small German-speaking populationA politician named after Adolf Hitler has won a seat at a Namibian election - but says he has no plans for world domination. ', "The German colonial empire was disbanded after World War I when the country was stripped of its possessions, and the colonial past has since become largely overshadowed by the horrors of Hitler's rule.", "The German government says it has a 'special responsibility' towards Namibia 'on account of the two countries' shared colonial past'."

' Namibia was later handed to South Africa by the League of Nations and finally achieved independence from the apartheid state in 1990. '
