John Augustus Abayomi-Cole

Dr. John Augustus Abayomi-Cole (1848–1943) was a Sierra Leonean medical doctor and herbalist.

He taught at the Evangelical United Brethren Church School, and in his mid-twenties he moved to the United States, where he was ordained a Minister in the American Wesleyan Methodist church.

He attended their General Conference in 1887, where he pleaded for missionaries to be sent to Sierra Leone.

This led to a small mission led by Rev.

Henry Johnston being dispatched there in 1889.
