With a constant desire to widen her knowledge, Lieutenant AÏSSATOU is currently completing a law degree at the University of Ebolowa. As the second child of six siblings, she also holds a number of military certificates, including that from the Practical Training Course for Officers of the National Gendarmerie (2021).

Married with four children, Lieutenant AÏSSATOU is always ready to serve the Nation with loyalty, professionalism and determination.
