African Indigenous Churches are found in every region and country in Africa, but they are more adequately documented in west Africa and southern Africa.This research paper studies some of these African Indigenous Churches (those in Nigeria), their practices, beliefs, achievements and the extent to which the church has grown in strength and populace and the possible future of these Churches.
