Godide (Mozambique, 1876 Angra do Heroísmo, 31 July de 1911], or Godide Nxumalo, also known as António da Silva Pratas Godide, was a son of Ngungunhane (or Gungunhana), the last ruler of the Gaza Empire, located in modern Mozambique. He was chosen by his father as putative heir to the throne.

After Ngungunhane was overthrown, Godide was also captured by Portuguese troops and sent to Lisbon, accompanying his father into exile in the Azores islands. He was the last recognised heir of the Jamine dynasty of the Nguni people.
