Bello Mandiya is a Nigerian politician, who was the elected Senator for the Katsina South Senatorial district[1] in February 2019 Nigerian general elections on the platform of All Progressives Congress (APC).[2][3] He was the former chief of staff to the Katsina State governor Aminu Bello Masari.

Bello's bid to return to the Senate in 2023 suffered a setback after he was defeated by Senator Muntari Dandutse in the primary election of the All Progressives Congress for the Katsina South senatorial district.[4][5]
