Mini Bio: Not much in known about Ayo, as her story only started in 2015, but she has certainly made her mark on the Dora over the years.

Ayo’s most known for actually rebelling against Queen Ramonda, after she sentenced Ayo’s lover, Aneka, to death for killing a man who was abusing women. Ayo tried to plead with the Queen to release Aneka, but Ramonda refused, so Ayo broke her out of prison.

The two escaped together and, after fighting the White Gorilla Army, they took over Jabari-Lands and set about creating a better Wakanda.

After long talks and negotiations, Ayo and Aneka managed to create a better government system in Wakanda, with the help of T’Challa and Shuri.
