Vital Kamerhe (born 1961) is a Congolese politician. He served as Speaker of the National Assembly of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (December 2006 - March 2009) and as Minister of Information.
After President Joseph Kabila allowed Rwandan troops to enter eastern Congo, Kamerhe criticized Kabila in an interview on Radio Okapi on 21 January 2009. Kabila's People's Party for Reconstruction and Democracy (PPRD) subsequently called for Kamerhe to resign as President of the National Assembly on 27 February 2009. On 25 March 2009 he decided to stand down because of this pressure; he was succeeded by Evariste Boshab.
