Godfrey Awaire Thoma (born 22 January 1957[1]) is a Nauruan politician and police officer.

Thoma started his first term in the parliament after being elected in 1995, ousting Theodore Moses after only three years.

He had been subsequently re-elected to parliament until 2007, when he lost his seat to newcomer Dantes Tsitsi.

Following the parliament's dissolution in 2008 after President Marcus Stephen had declared a state of emergency, Thoma was re-elected to parliament to serve a second term for the Aiwo Constituency, ending the 31-year parliamentary term of former president René Harris who died just two months later.

Thoma served as Minister of Justice in the administrations of René Harris and Ludwig Scotty.
