520 |a The main focus of this paper is to debunk the erroneous notion that prophetic ministry first emerged within African Indigenous Churches in Nigeria and establish the fact that there were manifestations of prophetic movements shortly after the inception of Christianity in the Church Missionary Society that later metamorphosed to the Anglican Church. Evidences abound of prophetic figures among who were Garrick Braide, Daddy Alii, a sexton at Our Saviour's Anglican Church Ijebu-Ode, Sophia Odunlami and of course Joseph Ayo Babalola. These people exhibited prophetic gifts but due to certain reasons the Church authority excommunicated them. However the fact remains that the Anglican church served as the incubator of their prophetic activities in later years. The historical and phenomenological approaches are adopted to gather data for the exercise.
