Moses Orimolade Tunolase

Moses Orimolade Tunolase was a Nigerian prophet and a co-founder of the Cherubim and Seraphim society in 1925–26. This movement emerged from the Aladura, or "Owners of Prayer," religious movement among the Yoruba people of western Nigeria. The Aladura movement began around 1918, influenced by dissatisfaction with Western religious practices and a desire for spiritual power. Tunolase, along with Christiana Abiodun Akinsowon, established the Cherubim and Seraphim society with doctrines emphasizing divine revelation and healing, replacing traditional charms and medicine. The society later separated from the Anglican Church and experienced further divisions, spreading widely across Nigeria and into other West African countries and beyond.1
