Nagai Yasushige

Nagai Yasushige (dates unknown, alive in 1264) was a Kamakura-period gokenin, a son of Nagai Tokihiro and grandson of Ōe no Hiromoto. At his coming of age he took a character from Hōjō Yasutoki. While his elder brother Yasuhide's line kept the Dewa lands, Yasushige's branch settled in Kyoto under the Rokuhara Tandai.

In 1252 he became shugo of Suō and accompanied shōgun Prince Munetaka to Kamakura, later holding Bizen and Bingo as shugo.
