From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Saltpetriers or Saltpeterers were a secret society based in Hauenstein, the Duchy of Baden, Germany. They were started to oppose the tyrannical rule of the Abbot of St. Blasius around the year 1750. By the end of the decade they were suppressed, reforming at the beginning of the 19th century to oppose school and church reforms. By 1840 the Saltpetriers had disbanded.

Peel (Aladura: A Religious Movement among the Yoruba, O.U.P., 1968. p. 60) described as the superintendent of Abeokuta Methodist Circuit.

Phillips, leader of the Praying Band section of the C & S in Lagos, supported this claim with the evidence that evangelists from his section who visited the north in the 1930s came back with the information that Orimolade was well known in Minna, and some other northern towns years before the society was founded. Captain Abiodun has also testified that she learned from Orimolade himself that he had visited Kaba, Ilorin, Kaduna and Kano before coming to Lagos in 1924. In the Year Book of Nigerian Churches, 1st edition 1969/70, Ibadan, Orimolade is said to have lived in the north--Jos, Zaria, Kano--from 1915 to 1920 and at Ilorin 1920-1924. 22.

Peel, op. cit., p. 60. 26. The Adubi War otherwise known as "The Egba uprising" did take place in Abeokuta in 1918, a few years before Orimolade arrived there. The Adubi War has been described as a minor revolt in which one European and one chief were deliberately killed in protest against the termination of Egba independence in 1914 and administrative innovations including the imposition of direct taxation in 1918.

Ayo Coker, popularly known as Were-Were Coker (Smart Coker), who later became one of the first leaders of the C & S and one of Orimolade's close advisers. 35.
