Mary Ayen

Mary Ayen is the wife of Salva Kiir, president of Africa’s newest country, South Sudan. Although she is not well-educated, Ayen was a vocal fighter for the secession of the south from the rest of Sudan.

Since then, she is been made a major-general in the army by her husband. This is apart from the fact that she is accused of profiting off disputes in South Sudan.
