Mapuata Cedric Makiadi (born 23 February 1984 in Kinshasa) is a Congolese football player, who currently plays for MSV Duisburg on loan from VfL Wolfsburg. Although he was born in DR Congo, Makiadi and his family moved to Germany when he was eight years of age.cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/africa/6371829.stm|title = Makiadi opts for DR Congo|accessdate=2007-02-17|publisher=BBC] There were calls for Makiadi to be called up to the German national side, and he even rejected a call to the Congolese national side for the African Cup of Nations, furthering speculation that he was in line for a call up. However, on 17 February 2007, Makiadi announced he was declaring for the DR Congo.

He has two brothers who are also football players: Fabrice Makiadi played for SSV Reutlingen and Matondo Makiadi for FSV Salmrohr.
