Godwin Obasogie (born January 25, 1954) is a Nigerian Olympian hurdler.
Obasogie was an All-American as a freshman at the University of Missouri in 1975. As a member of the Nigerian Olympic team in 1976, he ran the 110m Hurdles.
Obasogie lived in St. Louis, Missouri and ran alongside teammate Dele Udo in college. In 1980, he spoke to the Post-Bulletin to confirm Udo's identity after another athlete claimed to have run under his name at the Olympics.
