The Maban languages are a small family of languages which have also been included in the proposed Nilo-Saharan family. Maban is spoken in Chad, the Central African Republic, and Sudan. This group includes the following languages:
- Kenjeje (Yaali)
- Masalit: Surbakhal, Masalit
- Aiki (Runga and Kibet, sometimes considered separate languages)
- Mabang: Karanga, Maba, Marfa
The languages of the villages of Gaudefroy-Demombynes and Nachtigal, called "Mimi", also appear to be Maban.
