Adolf Hitler Is Changing His Name After Winning Election
set the record straight: to provide the true facts about a situation so that people stop believing wrong information
Adolf Hitler Uunona has just won his fifth election in Namibia. The 59-year-old politician is incredibly popular in his area, even though he shares a name with a notorious dictator. He recently received a huge number of votes to keep his local government seat. However, his name causes a lot of confusion around the world. He wants to set the record straight and tell everyone that he is not a Nazi.
Uunona says that his father probably chose the name without understanding its dark history. Namibia was once a German colony, so Germanic names are still common in the region. He thought it was a normal name when he was a child. He only learned the disturbing truth when he grew up. To fix the problem, he has officially removed the name Hitler from his identity documents. He told a newspaper that he is simply Adolf Uunona now.
