Matthew Mazibuko was a Human male of African descent who served as Federation Councillor for United Earth in the late 24th century. Before being elected to the Federation Council, Mazibuko served in the Diplomatic Corps as an Ambassador, and was noted by Admiral Leonard James Akaar to have a reputation for avoiding temperamental extremism.

As a member of one of the five founding Members of the UFP, Councillor Mazibuko served on the Federation Security Council. In 2376, Mazibuko agreed with Ra'ch B'ullhy that Dynkorra M'Relle's suggestion, which was that Trill's membership in the Federation should be reevaluated, was an extreme course of action. Mazibuko believed that long-standing member worlds should not be cut loose, and that recovery from the Dominion War required political cohesion. (DS9 novel: Trill: Unjoined)
As of 2380, Councillor Mazibuko also served on the Federation External Affairs Council as the Deputy Chair alongside Chairwoman T'Latrek. (ST novel: Articles of the Federation)
