Issouf ag Maha (Agadez, February 27, 1962) is a Nigerien Tuareg writer.
In his works, he talks about the tragedy of his people in Arlit region and criticises the uranium exploitation, as well as the unusual Kolleram cardboard phenomenon. He served in the Nigerien Army in the mid-to-early 1980s, in order to save up money for publishing his own books, and to support his family and wife.
