Jama kaNdaba (d. 1781), the son of Ndaba kaMageba , was chief of the Zulu clan from 1763 to 1781.

He married, amongst others, Mthaniya Sibiya, who bore him Senzangakona, who succeeded him. Senzangakona was the father of three Zulu kings, including the greatest, Shaka. He also had a daughter named Mkabayi, who was sister to Senzanghakona.

His name is derived from the Zulu word meaning "he of the stern countenance".
