Patrick Omgba Ada (born 14 January 1985) is a Cameroonian former professional footballer and convicted rapist.

During his career, which lasted between 2004 and 2012, Ada played as a defender. He notably represented Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premier League, and played in the Football League for Barnet, Exeter City, Crewe Alexandra and Burton Albion. He also played in Non-league football with Redbridge, St Albans City, Histon and Ebbsfleet United.

Ada was released by Ebbsfleet in December 2012 after he was sentenced to five years in prison for rape.[1]

Ada made 94 appearances over two years with Histon,[2] helping them chase promotion.[3]

On 23 February 2012, after training for a week with Burton Albion, Ada signed a contract until the end of the season with the League Two side.[7] Ada joined Conference National side Ebbsfleet United in the summer of 2012 and went on to make 19 league appearances and played his final game on 4 December in a 4–2 home defeat by Cambridge United before being released after being jailed for rape.
