Adolf Hitler Uunona could win local elections in the state of Namibia

As voters in a small Namibian constituency head to the polls on Wednesday, they are expected to re-elect a local politician with a catchy name: Adolf Hitler Uunona.

Uunona, 59, is a member of the South West Africa People's Organisation, the country's left-leaning ruling party since it achieved independence from South Africa in 1990.

He was first elected as a councillor for the Ompundja constituency, which is located in the Oshana Region of Namibia, in 2004, and won re-election bids in 2015 and 2020.

"My father gave me this name Adolf Hitler, but that doesn't mean I have the character of Adolf Hitler or resemble that of Adolf Hitler of Germany. Hitler was a controversial person who captured and killed people all over the globe. I am not like him," the candidate said.

Under German colonial rule from 1884 to 1915, Namibia adopted the use of several early Germanic names that are still used in the country today./CNA
