Khairat Abdulrazaq-Gwadabe (born 1957) is a Nigerian political figure who represented the Abuja Federal Capital Territory as Senator from May 1999 until May 2003, serving under the People's Democratic Party (PDP) during the initial phase of Nigeria's Fourth Republic. She is related to Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq as his sister and is married to Colonel Lawan Gwadabe, who formerly governed Niger State in a military capacity. Born on 23 April 1957 in Ilorin, she pursued legal studies at the University of Buckingham.

Throughout her time in the Senate, Khairat led the Women Affairs Committee and participated in several other committees, including those focused on Environment, Health, Federal Character, Tourism and Culture, as well as the Federal Capital Territory. Additionally, she contributed as a member of the Panel of Review for Nigeria Customs and Excise.

Khairat attempted to secure a second term in 2003 but was unsuccessful in the PDP primary elections, a result possibly linked to her prior endorsement of efforts to impeach President Olusegun Obasanjo. In early 2003, expressing grievances over perceived bias within the PDP, she switched allegiance to the All Nigeria People's Party (ANPP).

At 48 years old, she welcomed her first child in Miami, Florida, in August 2005. By December 2011, she held the position of chairperson for the Senators Forum, an organization dedicated to fostering collaboration and information sharing among current and former senators.
