Illorin, Kwara
The Nigerian Army College of Education (NACOE) evolved from The Nigerian Army School of Education (NASE) Ilorin which was established since 1970 as a training branch of the Nigerian Army Education Corps (NAEC) and was charged with the responsibility of educating illiterate soldiers recruited into the Army during the Nigerian civil war. At the initial stage, the objective was to train soldiers to be literate and become Instructors in the fields of Map Reading and Languages (French and Arabic). This could be said to be the beginning of this foremost Military Institution which was initially located at Baboko, Ilorin and later relocated to a more spacious and expansive location at Sobi Barracks Ilorin.
