Brigadier General Tefera Mamo (Amharic: ተፈራ ማሞ) is an Ethiopian military officer who was subjected to multiple imprisonments during the EPRDF and then the Prosperity Party regime.

Tefera has served the Ethiopian army from the Ethiopian Civil War, and became vocal supporter of Amhara people rights due to their prejudice in the Ethiopian politics. After prime minister Abiy Ahmed came to power, Tefera was appointed as the commander of the Amhara Regional Special Force by the then Amhara Region president Agegnehu Teshager in July 2021. Tefera vowed to join Fano militia after the war in Amhara broke out in 2023.
