Shartai Jaafar Abdel Hakam () is a politician from Sudan who held the position of governor in West Darfur and served as the Chairperson of the Transitional Darfur Regional Authority (TDRA). He became chair in December 2010 following the exit of the Sudan Liberation Movement from the Darfur Peace Agreement and the subsequent removal of its leader, Minni Minnawi. Abdel-Hakam's appointment was in accordance with the agreement's clause permitting a Darfur state governor to assume the chairmanship if the role is left unoccupied. He remained at the helm of the TDRA until its transformation into the Darfur Regional Authority, when Tijani Sese took over as chair on 20 September 2011.
