Akafuna Tatila (died 1887) was a Litunga, Chief of the Lozi people of Barotseland in Africa, but he ruled for a very short time and his power was weak.[1] His full title was Mulena Yomuhulu Mbumu wa Litunga.

Father of Akafuna was Chief Imbua Mulumbwa.[2]

Before he became a king of Lozi, Akafuna was a High Chief of Lukwakwa. In September 1884 Akafuna began to rule, but was deposed by great king Lewanika in 1885.[3]

Akafuna was killed by Mulanziana Sitwala.
