Like his compatriot Yazi Dogo , he came into lasting contact with the theater at school festivals. In his first play, Aoua from 1965, Mayaki described the emotional life of Africans who are doing vocational training in Paris . Typical of his socially critical approach as a man of letters is his drama La crise from 1980, in which he denounced the decline of traditional values ​​and the greed for money. Thematically closely related plays by other Nigerien authors are Mariama (1969) by Idé Oumarou and Rêve déçu (1989) by Azonhon Faton . Djibo Mayaki wrote a number of other dramas, as well as works of fiction . At the end of the 20th century, alongside Hima Adamou, he was one of the most played dramatists in Niger.
