Comment
According to Wojciechowski, this is the same person as Ionngoka daughter of Chael Songoja (Ionngoka I). Here she occurs as the party of a transaction together with one Mena. Mena's gender is not specified, but this is typically male name, so one can suppose that these two were husband and wife.
