Albert Kanene Obiefuna (January 30, 1930 – May 11, 2011) was the Roman Catholic archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Onitsha, Nigeria.

Ordained to the priesthood in 1963, Obiefuna became Bishop of Awka in 1977,[1] Archbishop of Onitsha in 1995 and retired in 2003.[2]

He was named Kanenechukwu by his parents because of the trying circumstances associated with his birth.
