After more than half a century of membership in SWAPO, veteran political analyst Henning Melber announced his resignation from the party. He cited a painful turning point: the elevation of Solomon ‘Jesus’ Hawala, accused of running the brutal Lubango detention camps, to national hero status and the announcement of a state funeral. Melber described this as a betrayal of SWAPO’s founding values and a refusal by the party leadership to reckon with its darkest chapter. To explore what this means for both Melber’s legacy and the party’s moral standing, Desert FM spoke to Henning Melber himself.
