The Borno State Governor, Alhaji Kashim Shettima, said the state government had spent over N10bn to provide support for the military operations against the Boko Haram insurgency in the state since 2011.
This, he said, was against the N200m spent on the war by the Federal Government during the same period.
Shettima also promised to relocate the abducted Chibok schoolgirls to other parts of the country to complete their secondary school education after their release.
He said this when the Chairman, Chibok Local Government, Mr. Baana Lawan, led the parents of the abducted schoolgirls to his office on Monday.
The governor said the state government would sponsor all the girls to schools in Abuja, Kano, Lagos, Kaduna or any other states of the country to complete their secondary school education.
It will be recalled that the girls were sitting for their final year examinations when they were kidnapped in their hostel on April 14.
