Kanah Shenelle Andrews-Nahu (born 18 January 2001)[1] is a New Zealand weightlifter. She won the bronze medal in the girls' +63 kg event at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics held in Buenos Aires, Argentina.[1] At the time, she finished in 4th place but Supatchanin Khamhaeng of Thailand was stripped of her gold medal after testing positive for a banned substance.[2][3]

At the 2019 Junior World Weightlifting Championships held in Suva, Fiji, she won the gold medal in the women's 76 kg Snatch event[4] and the bronze medal in the women's 76 kg event.[5] As a result, she became the first weightlifter from New Zealand to win a gold medal at this event.[6] A month later, at the 2019 Pacific Games held in Apia, Samoa, she won the gold medal in the women's 76 kg event.[7]
She represented New Zealand at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan.[8][9] She finished in 13th place in the women's 87 kg event.[10][11]
