The Executive Secretary of the state Arabic and Islamic Education Board, Muhammad Gujba, made this known on Monday while briefing journalists in Damaturu.
Mr Gujba, represented by an official at the board, Umar Muhammad, said the sponsorship was part of the present administration’s effort to improve the quality of education in the state.
“The present administration, led by Governor Mai Mala Buni, has variety of programmes aimed at promoting the system of education by impacting sound knowledge among the students,” he said.
He said the students were selected from across the local government councils of the state.
Mr Gujba appealed to the students to be good ambassadors of the state and the country and to reciprocate the gesture by concentrating on their studies.
