Arthur Nibbs is a politician from Antigua and Barbuda. He represents the Antigua Labour Party in the Antiguan Senate. Born in Barbuda, he was educated at the Holy Trinity School and the Antigua Grammar School.

He first stood, unsuccessfully, for election to the Barbuda Council in 1977, but was returned in the 1979 polls. He was a member of the delegation which took part in the 1980 talks with Sir Stanley Arthur, the UK Government Representative in the Caribbean, at Lancaster House on independence for Antigua and Barbuda. His mandate was to argue against a joint state between the two islands.^[2]

Nibbs has served as Chairman of the Barbuda Council between 1985–1989, 1997–1999 and 1999–2000. He has also served two terms in the Senate, and when he stood for the House of Representatives of Antigua and Barbuda in 2004 was the subject of a tied vote. Both he and his opponent from the Barbuda People's Movement (an ally of United Progressive Party) each received 400 votes. A by-election was held on April 20 in which Trevor Walker of BPM was elected with 408 votes against 394 for Nibbs.

In 2009 Arthur Nibbs contested the Barbuda seat once again running against Trevor Walker where he lost by one vote to Walker.
