Mahmud Tukur (1939 - 2021) was a Nigerian politician and former Minister for Commerce and Industry during the military administration of General Muhammadu Buhari. He was the first indigenous Director of the Institute of Administration, Congo, Zaria. He took the mantle from Professor Professor Sam Scruton Richardson in 1967, until 1975 when he became the first Vice Chancellor of Bayero University, Kano.[1] Tukur's enviable position and competence displayed as the Vice Chancellor of Bayero University increased his public profile in Northern Nigeria. He became friends with contemporaries such as Mamman Daura, Adamu Ciroma, Hamza Rafindadi Zayyad to form a small clique of policy advocates in Northern Nigeria. He died on April 9, 2021, at the age of 82 years.[2][3]
