The school is named after Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to project his ideals which is basically to assist the poor and the needy..
Prince Balogun in his interactions with the press said " When I first I heard about the school and the amount charged which is said to be annually, I asked myself how true could this be? Fifteen thousand naira for the primary school pupils and twenty thousand naira for the secondary school students? This got me thinking how achievable is this? . Then, I made it incumbent on myself to visit the schools for areas of collaborations"
" On behalf of myself, my family and my campaign organization, we promised to support the school by providing writing materials, chairs and table amongst other things. But truth be told, I'm totally disappointed in our political leaders and public officers in Alimosho for not partnering with the school all these years since it has 'something to do ' with our leader, Asiwaju. Having visited the schools today, what our political leaders failed to do, we will do it and ensure the school excel because it is really assisting the poor."
When asked about his ambition he said " I'm still very much in the race and what I will do differently if eventually emerged is what you see me doing here today. My representation will be about the people and most especially the less privileged in the society."
"What surprises me most is the issue raised by the director of the school that he had for years approached who is who in Political circle in Alimosho to assist the school since it has a strong affiliations with the All progressives congress but what he keeps getting is unfulfilled promises over the years. This shows our so called APC leaders are only after their own good. This is why we are calling everyone in Alimosho (APC) to join the Otoge Alimosho and the libration movement. "
