Pre-independence
A former combatant in the Namibian War of Independence with SWAPO's armed wing, Biwa was one of many alleged spies detained near Lubango, Angola in the 1980s.[2] Biwa founded the PUM in July 1989 ahead of the 1989 elections and immediately led the party into the UDF alliance.[3] Biwa was a member of the National Assembly of Namibia from its founding as the Constituent Assembly prior to independence in 1989 until his resignation in 2003. He was replaced by Gustaphine Tjombe.[4]
