Aissa Koli also called Aisa Kili Ngirmaramma was a queen regnant in the Kanem–Bornu Empire in 1497–1504[1][2][3] or 1563–1570.
Aissa Koli was reportedly the daughter of King Ali Gaji Zanani.
During Dunama's reign, he had declared that all the sons of his predecessor should be killed, and Aissa's five-year-old half-brother Idris was therefore sent away to Bulala in secret by his mother.
[8] When Dunama died, Aissa succeeded him as ruler in the absence of any male heir, as she was unaware that her half-brother was still alive.
When her term was up, she was informed of the existence of her half-brother, who was by then twelve years on age, named Idris.
