Biographic

The seventeenth Uukwambi King was Negumbo lyaKandenge (1875-1907).He was a moderate king and managed to unify the Uukwambi community once again after the decline of its royal power due to the many wars in the past with the Ongandjera area. In 1890 ,at the invitation of Ongandjera King Shaanika shaNashilongo, the Rhenish Missionary Society sent out two missionaries ,August Wulfhorst and Friedrich Meisenholl ,to work in the Ongandjera area in Ovamboland. On their way to Okahao they were stop By King Negumbo. Thereafter the missionaries were invited by Uukwanyama King Ueyulu yaHedimbi to establish mission stations in the Uukwanyama area instead (which they did do in 1891)[1]

In October 1900 Erich Victor Carl August Frank (Victor Franke) visited Ovamboland But King Negumbo of the Uukwambi refused to allow Franke to visit his territory and threatened the Germans with with war. Franke reported about growing native resistance against the activities of the Finnish missionaries. In June 1901 war between the Germans and king Negumbo seemed imminent. Captain Klienfoth had to retreat. For this reason Georg Hartmann (geographer) of the OMEG later decided to bypass the Uukwambi area in the planing of a railway line between Otavi and Porto Alexandre in Angola. After the death of King Negumbo in 1907, Iipumpu Ya Tshilongo became the new king (1902-1932)
