Abdul Ghani bin Ahmad JP (born 3 June 1970) is a Malaysian politician who has served as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Jerlun since November 2022. He served as Member of the Kedah State Executive Council (EXCO) in the Pakatan Rakyat (PR) state administration under former Menteri Besar Azizan Abdul Razak from March 2010 to the collapse of the PR state administration in May 2013 as well as Member of the Kedah State Legislative Assembly (MLA) for Ayer Hitam from November 1999 to March 2004 and again from March 2008 to May 2018. He is a member of the Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS), a component party of the Perikatan Nasional (PN) and formerly PR coalitions.
Abdul Ghani was first elected to the Kedah Assembly for Ayer Hitam in the 1999 state election, but was defeated in 2004 by Othman Aziz of Barisan Nasional (BN).
In the 2008 state election, Abdul Ghani regained the seat in a rematch against Othman. With PR defeating BN in the 2008 state election and seeing the first ever transition of power in the history of Kedah as well as ending the 60-year rule of BN of the state, Abdul Ghani was appointed as an Kedah EXCO Member by Menteri Besar Azizan in March 2010.
In the 2013 state election, BN regained power by defeating PR and Abdul Ghani also lost his state seat to Mukhriz Mahathir of BN.
In the 2018 general election, Abdul Ghani moved to the federal politics and lost to Mukhriz again, but of Pakatan Harapan (PH) in the contest for the Jerlun federal seat.
In the 2022 general election, Abdul Ghani defeated defending MP Mukhriz of the Homeland Fighters Party (PEJUANG) and other candidates in the contest for the same federal seat.
