Surely, simple search would have assistes you!

Yes, the Nigerian Army has a Christian theology school known as the Nigerian Army School of Chaplaincy (NASCH) . It is located in Kaduna for protestant, for Catholic priests in Ojo Barracks Lagos, Nigeria, and is responsible for training military chaplains in Christian theology and ministry.

The school offers various programs, including a Diploma in Theology, Bachelor of Arts in Theology, and Master of Arts in Theology. The programs are designed to equip chaplains with the necessary knowledge and skills to provide spiritual support to military personnel and their families.

The Nigerian Army also has a Islamic theology school, the Nigerian Army School of Islamic Affairs (NASIA), which trains military chaplains in Islamic theology and ministry.

Both schools are aimed at promoting spiritual well-being and moral guidance within the military.

This is the latest silly propaganda that is going viral.

The Nigerian Armed Forces offers chaplaincy services to its officers, men and women. The job of the chaplain is to minister to the spiritual needs of the soldiers.

Examples of famous chaplains are Reverend Monsignor Colonel Ayodele Pedro-Martins and Anthony Cardinal Okogie, who served as a chaplain during the Civil War.

The chaplaincy services in the Nigerian Armed Forces are divided into the Islamic, Roman Catholic and Protestant chaplaincy services. There are schools that train the pastors, priests and imams that serve as chaplains in the armed forces.

The Nigerian Army School of Chaplaincy (Protestant) has a rich history and plays a vital role in supporting the spiritual needs of soldiers and their families.

Established in 1962, shortly after Nigeria gained independence

Initially located in Lagos, the school was later moved to its current location in Abeokuta, Ogun State

- The school has undergone several transformations and upgrades over the years to enhance its training programs and facilities

It's true however their director is an Ibo Muslim, and also a chief Imam, from Imo state.
Emekoma is now a Brigadier general and director of the Islamic affairs institute of the Nigerian Army.
