Willem Abraham Botha (born 21 March 1943)[1] is a retired South African politician who represented the Freedom Front (FF) in the National Assembly from 1994 to 1999. He was elected in the 1994 general election[2] as one of the party's nine representatives in the assembly.[3]

Though he stood for re-election in 1999, he was ranked sixth on the FF's national party list[1] and therefore failed to gain re-election.[4]
