This is a list of the Archbishops and Bishops in the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, in post in 2007. In 2007 the church had 10 Provinces in Nigeria, each with an Archbishop. Each Province is divided into dioceses; there were 138 dioceses in Nigeria (and 3 external mission dioceses), each with a bishop. Each Archbishop is also the bishop of one of the dioceses in his Province. The pre-eminent Archbishop, The Primate of All Nigeria, is chosen from the Archbishops, and becomes Bishop of Abuja. The Primate in 2007 was Peter Akinola, who served from 2000 to 2010.
