The Aminu Kano Centre for Democratic Studies (AKCDS), also known as Mambayya House, functions as a research and training unit of Bayero University, Kano. Established in 2000, the nonprofit organisation aims to "promote and consolidate Nigeria’s growing democratic heritage and practice through theoretical and applied research, as well as training and policy analysis".[1][2]

Named in honour of the 20th-century Nigerian politician Aminu Kano, the Centre houses a museum commemorating his life, situated within the premises of the late politician's original residence. The centre's nickname, Mambayya House, originates from the nickname of Aminu's mother.[1]
