Ahmed Duale Gelle (Somali: Axmed Ducaale Geele; born 8 July 1949) was the 5th president of Galmudug State of Somalia, in office from 3 May 2017 to 2 February 2020.

Gelle was born in 1945 in the city of Galkayo, situated in the Mudug, region of Somalia and hails from the Sacad subclan of Habar Gidir.

May 29, 2017, Galmudug's president was officially inaugurated into office at a ceremony in the state capital Adado.

Representatives of the international community urged Gelle to hold meetings with Ahlu Sunna Waljama'a (a Galmudug-based paramilitary group consisting of moderate Sufis opposed to Islamist groups such as Al-Shabaab) although reconciliation meetings were held before Galmudug's election and despite the first round of talks being successful, it was curtailed by the presidential campaign of Galmudug State.
