A video currently making the rounds across social media platforms captures the moment a sleek helicopter touched down in the school’s sports complex.

As the rotors slowed, Asake, the “Mr. Money” himself, emerged alongside his longtime friend and fellow alumnus, Yhemolee.

The duo, who are both proud graduates of the institution, were met by a high-powered delegation of school officials For Asake, this visit was more than just a display of success; it was a sentimental journey.
