Jemma Nunu Kumba: S.Sudan's first female parliament speaker

JUBA - Jemma Nunu Kumba will become the first woman to preside over the parliament of South Sudan, the world’s youngest nation that only recently marked 10 troubled years of independence.

Born in 1966, Kumba joined SPLM rebels at the start of the 1990s in a civil war that pitted them against Khartoum. After independence in 2011, she held several official posts, including governor of the Western Equatoria state in the country’s southwest. Close to 400,000 people died and four million were displaced before a ceasefire was declared in 2018.As part of the 2018 peace deal, parliament was dissolved and then reconstituted in May, with 550 lawmakers instead of the previous 400.As such, Kumba will preside over an assembly that includes nearly 40 percent of members of Machar’s party."It is not going to be business as usual.
