Nakatindi Yeta Nganga (1922–1972)^[1] was a Lozi aristocrat and Zambian politician. Jointly one of the first women elected to the National Assembly, she was also the country's first female junior minister.

In the 1964 general elections, Nakatindi ran in the Nalikwanda constituency and was elected to the Legislative Council, which became the National Assembly upon independence later in the year. Alongside Margret Mbeba and Ester Banda, she was a member of the first group of women to be elected to the legislature.^[4] She went on to become Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Labor and Social Development in 1966,^[1] the first woman to hold a junior ministerial position.^[5] The following year she was appointed Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Mines and Co-operatives, before becoming Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Co-operatives, Youth and Social Development in 1967.^[1]

Nakatindi remained a member of the National Assembly until losing her seat to Zambian African National Congress in the 1968 elections.^[1] She then became a member of the House of Chiefs and governor of Sesheke District, positions in which she served until her death in 1972.^[1]

Her daughter Nakatindi Wina, one of 11 children,^[1] later also served as an MP and minister.^[6]
